[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 281575, member: 9215"] Forster BR seater. Redding has copied it and sells theirs for more money but they don't work any better. The Micrometer heads are an asset for users but they don't add a thing to the accuracy of the ammo produced. No seater can do much for you if the case necks aren't straight. Since there is no Lee Collet neck die for that cartridge, remove the exander ball and use the FL sizer you have. You really do need to expand the necks properly but get a Lyman "M" expander die for that job, and maybe a universal decapper for punching out the spent primers. The "M" dies work by pushing IN on the necks instead of pulling OUT. That design change leaves much straighter necks, on average, than a conventional expander ball. If your case necks vary more than about .002" in thickness it would be helpful to turn them over maybe 60-70% of the circumference. The Forster "HOT-100" hand held neck turner is a very good one and the price is right too. [/QUOTE]
