[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 334482, member: 11717"] The Redding FL (and Neck) Bushing die does come with an expander button to size from the inside. However if you want to do that kind of sizing, you should just get the standard FL die as it costs $20 less. And there isn't much sense bushing sizing if you dont turn the necks. The bushing die will theorhetically give you more concentric necks and allow you to set your tension. But with the standard FL (or neck) die, you can get a floating expander button for around $20 and replace the rigid button which gives a more concentric neck. If you get the floating button, it's good to get a rubber "o" ring and put it on the spindle just below the button. This will allow the button a little more movement/selfadjustment as it is pulled up through the neck for a more concentric sized neck. The rigid die may drag to one side or the other as it is being pulled up through the neck. Also a good idea to bacl off the die a little, to leave a small donut around the botom of the neck to align it with the neck chamber and throat. You can do this with either type of die, but you have more flexability with the bushing die. [/QUOTE]
