[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 515235, member: 5302"] Reload some ammo two different ways using a full length sizing die with an expander ball. Pay particular attention to the force needed to seat bullets in each method. Load two rounds the way you normally do. Load two more rounds the same way, but don't use an expander ball on the decapping stem. If you have to use one, use one a couple calibers smaller so it won't expand the sized down case neck. You might want to use an Easy Out turned clockwise to debur the case mouth so bullets will seat without too much trouble. Shoot both rounds of each type noting pressure signs on each. Chronograph them to see the difference. [/QUOTE]
