[QUOTE="jb1000br, post: 87882, member: 1459"] Comp shellholders are the way to go. "Whatever you do DO NOT set up your sizing die with the bottom of the die touching the shellholder!!!!!!!!!!!!" This doesnt always oversize...depends on HOW HARD you are hitting the base of the die -- spring/slop in the press setup will usually let you at least touch the die, if not cam over. I wouldm't size WITHOUT camming the shellholder off the die!! -- it helps to seat the die square in the threads. Also, if you have a space between the die and SH, you will often make things chamber tighter, cause you are squeezing a lump of brass to the web area. this WILL cause tight chambering -- BTDT with belted mags. YMMV, JB [/QUOTE]
