[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 1977065, member: 61747"] I am not a fan of the expander button as it draw back up and through the case which can change shoulder bumper a bit. I prefer a mandrel expander. It's an extra step but works well. You could take your FL die and ream the neck sizing portion out and then use your neck die. This will create less cold working of the neck. If you are looking for the ultimate in consistency this is what I'd do. However, if you have good results with SD, accuracy etc, I'd keep using the expander or just add a mandrel expander and be done. [/QUOTE]
