[QUOTE="Fishdeeper, post: 2109151, member: 110706"] Thanks for the advice all! I’ve ordered 21st Century expander dies and mandrels. Kevin confirmed I need the standard for 300wsm and the Extended Length for 300Winmag. I’m thinking a good test will be to compare: a) FL sized w expander ball and crimped ( what i have been doing all along) b) body die sized and Lee Collett Neck sized, no crimp c) FL sized w/o ball and mandrel expanded w .306 , no crimp Brass, primers, seating depth all the same. i will adjust the shoulder bump to .002 for all 3 ....have to wait a month or so for the expander order to get to Canada. Will report back afterwards. [/QUOTE]
