[QUOTE="L.Sherm, post: 1408170, member: 102083"] I think alot of people have the bushing used with an expander wrong, the bushing with an expander is used just to undersize your brass enought so that the expander pulls through it sizes correctly or whatever inside dimension you want. Used with no more than .002 les then your loaded round it works the necks less than conventional expander only dies unless you have your die honed to fit a specific brass and expander. Off the shelf dies are made to fit mostly all brass so they tend to undersized the necks the are pretty tight when the expander is pulled back through. I size my brass exactly as biged does in my opionion if you anneal your brass often, lube your necks and use proper bushing a expander is fine. I don't like the irregularities pushed to the inside also. Most of my brass I don't neck turn a few wildcats that I neck down for I have to. [/QUOTE]
