[QUOTE="Delta Hunter, post: 215111, member: 441"] I don't have that particular tool, but here's my take on it. You may be sizing your brass with perfect concentricity on the outside of the neck, but with that die the difference in neck thickness will be tranferred to the inside of the neck and therefore the inside surface of the neck will not be concentric to the axis. So, when you chamfer the neck with the Wilson tool, there's no way the chamfer is going to be even around the mouth of the case. This apparently you already know. I've used the Redding neck die you're talking about and never got the desired concentricity I wanted without turning the case necks first. So, either turn the necks or use a handheld chamfer tool. Actually I'd turn the necks regardless of what else you do in order to get less bullet runout. Then again, you could just get a Lee collet neck die which indexes off the inside of the neck instead of the outside. [/QUOTE]
