[QUOTE="Orange Dust, post: 1711857, member: 92702"] Just putting this out there. 40 years ago it was pretty much rcbs dies or custom. I was taught this for standard rcbs dies, and you can load some pretty accurate ammo this way... set up the sizer with a nickle of clearance between it and the shell holder. Size a case and see if it will chamber. If not, lower the die until the bolt will close with some, but light resistance. Set up the seater normally but only seat about 1/3 the way. Turn the case about 1/3 counter clockwise and seat about another 1/3. Repeat and seat to final depth. Much easier to do and show than type. You would be surprised just how good ammo you can load with standard dies, partial resizing and then seating this way. Bolt action rifles only though. [/QUOTE]
