[QUOTE="Huntz, post: 2325127, member: 110832"] I like to neck size brass for a particular rifle.I either use a Lee Collet neck die or a regular neck die (any brand).I remove the sizing button and run the brass into the die sizing the neck,I use a universal decaping die to get out the old primer.I then screw the stem and sizing button back in,but leave it loose or free floating.The button will self center it self and your neck will be straight.You can polish the expanding button for the tension you want.Polishing makes the tension tighter.When the brass will no longer chamber,I the use a Redding body die to resize.I put it right against the shell holder and resize.Then I check to see if it chambers easily.If not I screw down 1/2 turn at a time until it chambers easily.Then I do the neck as above.Bushing dies,mandrels,incrimented shell holders are all nice but really not needed.I do how ever anneal my brass about every 3 to 4 shots.Cleaning brass is a personal opinion.I clean after every firing.It saves your dies from getting scratched inside.This is how I do it.Opinions vary.Huntz [/QUOTE]
