[QUOTE="rugerdog5, post: 973658, member: 24171"] Greyfox, The issue was occurring without seating a bullet at all, other than the very first one I did. On the crimp I always turn my seating dies out a couple extra turns to ensure that I don't get any crimp unless I'm loading for mag pistols or my 45-70. The dies are Redding match S. Since you couldn't see the video I ran a couple pieces of never fired new out of the box cases through the neck sizer w/o a bushing the expander ball goes through the case mouth like any other round I have ever sized. Then when it hits the shoulder joint it gets incredibly tight. Also I had loaded many norma and nosler cases prior to this for break in and getting a good starting load. I never had any issues with either using the same dies. MMERS, To continue where I left off but also comment on your post. After getting the ball to size out that spot at the bottom of the neck the runout is so awful I would basically be wasting powder and bullets just hopefully straighten them back out. Runout was over .030 on the two I sized. [/QUOTE]
