[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 974177, member: 2736"] Sinclair offers two mandrels for each caliber, one is for pre-sizing the neck and the other is for turning the neck. The first mandrel sizes the neck to fit the turning mandrel perfectly for a perfect turning of the neck. This is the best way to do the job. Other dies like Hornady, RCBS, Forester, ETC have expander balls and they work good but may not perfectly match the mandrel on your 4000 turning tool but it is better than doing nothing. On this type of die I save the brass by simply running the expander ball out far enough that the neck sizing part of the die doesn't size the outside of the neck, or just run the brass up in the die just far enough to expand the neck. My recommendation would be to talk To Sinclair about both mandrels for the calibers you need and buy them. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
