[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 356262, member: 307"] I started out 25 yrs ago using RCBS, at that time they were pretty much the only game in town. I swore off RCBS a few years back because of the inconsistency with their seating die. It probably could have all been corrected with a diffferently designed seating stem. Didn't know or realize that at the time. I have used a couple/three Lee's and one Lyman. They're good as RCBS, but I took a liking to the Hornady CGND Dies approx. 10 yrs ago and have pretty much converted over. I can't find any flaw with them other than the price continually goes up. That's everything though. With LR precision shooting, the consistency in reloads is one factor you can influence. Primers, the powder charge, the case, bullet and seating depth all matter. The top fuel dragsters don't run on Regular Unleaded and the fuel to air mixture is critical to performance, ditto for reloads. Get the best dies you can afford, learn how to adjust them properly for your needs and don't look back. JMO. JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
