[QUOTE="woods, post: 759790, member: 6042"] Hey Bb The Redding Press does cam over but the instructions from Lee for the Collet die state specifically to set your press so it DOES NOT cam over. I have done it both ways. Once you reach 25# weight on the lever there is no use for any more. The collets have sized the brass onto the mandrel and the brass will not compress any nor will the mandrel. It is easy to just lean onto the lever everytime with the same force. Camming over just puts more stress on your press and the die. I check all my neck ID's with pin gauges and consistancy is not a problem. [/QUOTE]
