[QUOTE="Jimm, post: 105939, member: 9"] Thomas , As you probably already know the trend is to " full length resize " for best accuracy . What is left out of this statement is the " minimal " part of the fl resize . The Redding body dies should not size as fully a s say for instance RCBS fl dies . If you want to step up to a different plate have Mr. Carstensen modify a set of dies using several fired cases from your rifle to create a die that is only minimally resized full length while setting the shoulder back a smidge ( I have one for my .300 Win Mag . They are neck bushing dies that use std Redding neck bushings . BTW , my $ 19.00 Lee collet dies produce .001 to .0015 runout and the full length of the neck is sized . Perhaps a selling point for " short Neck " cases but for me the ease of use is too cool. Jim B. [/QUOTE]
