[QUOTE="bigedp51, post: 1474356, member: 28965"] Redding recommends if the necks are not turned to size the necks .004 smaller than a loaded round and use their expander. This pushes any neck irregularities to the outside of the neck. Redding also states if the case necks are not turned and have .002 or less neck thickness variations the expander is not needed. They also now recommend with turned necks to use a bushing .002 smaller than a loaded round. Also at the Whidden website they tell you that non-bushing full length dies will produce the most concentric cases. I use Forster full length dies with their high mounted floating expanders that work as well as using a expander die. [/QUOTE]
