[QUOTE="Broz, post: 317792, member: 7503"] MT, look into this further. The standard "S" type sizing die does not capture the case in a sleeve and align it before it starts sizing. The competition neck die does. Also on my Lapua, even though the shoulder location is fine, when you full length size you are always doin quite a bit of sizing at the lower part of the case. I feel this being an area we do not anneal resizing it when not needed will lead to case failure in this area. I had a very lengthy conversation with Robin at redding about all this and the proper way to set up these dies in the Redding T-7 press. Ribin was a great help to my reloading. One more thing, if you already have the standard die, just purchase the comp neck die. Then remove all the moving parts and the bushing from the standard sizer and it will become the die to use for body and shoulder sizing when needed. Just food for thought. Jeff [/QUOTE]
