[QUOTE="orch, post: 551849, member: 35688"] Hey Gary, I thought of that too... I ran the expander up so it was about one thread from the case neck while the case was fully in the die so the expander was starting to do it's work while the upper part of the neck was still in the neck portion of the die and it still gave me pretty bad run out... About 8 thou.... The rcbs competition die in question has the carbide expander higher up on the decapping rod assembly and separate from the actual decapping pin holder unlike the conventional rcbs dies... Probably similar to how you describe the Forster dies (I have never used a Forster so I can't say for sure) on a side note I realized I had a regular 30-06 rcbs die that I have hardly used so I stole the convetional decapping/expander rod from it and the case neck run out went back down to 1-2 thou.... But I think I will still switch to a bushing die to reduce the amount I am moving the brass back and forth with each resizing cycle... Orch [/QUOTE]
