[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 433993, member: 25383"] to start out with I really only neck size for my rounds that are in 22 and 6mm centerfire. All the rest I reload just like everybody else does. I personally like Forster dies, but also reallize everybody has his own opinions. I prime most of the time with the Forster prime setup on the back of my Forster press (just always worked well for me, so I keep using it), but have strayed from time to time when I discovered a new tool. Now I use nothing but the Forster or a K&M. I measure powder with an electronic scale (Pacts to be exact), and trickle like anybody else does when using long grain powders. I also have two powder measurers I use all the time, but have been thru four or five others. I use a generic Lyman #55 with the Sinclair bottle attachment kit, and a Harrell Culver measurer. With ball powders there is very little difference between the two. I also use several different drop tubes, and this can be a big difference. I trim all my rifle cases with a Wilson case trimmer, but still do my revolver cases with an old Lyman. I also use a small K&M arbor press and several sets of Wilson dies plus one custom built set by Pendel (cut off his .222 match chamber reamer). My case forming setup is similar to the above, but also have a small RCBS press I use to cut off cases (easier than using the Forster). gary [/QUOTE]
