[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 499203, member: 2736"] I prefer to use a full length sizing die backed off just a little (2 or 3 thousandths) to get a good fit in the chamber and hold the round centered for sizing the neck. After trimming, place a bullet in one of the cases and check the outside dimension of the neck and compare it with a fired piece of brass to make sure you have turned it enough to let it expand at least .003 to .004.thousandths. Failure to do so may cause a pressure problem. If you have a die that has a floating body that holds the case centered while sizing the neck then you will be fine. I hope this helps.
