[QUOTE="el matador, post: 1840758, member: 12193"] Having a different opinion doesn't make you ignorant. If you like their products and they work well for you that's great. I've used a few of their dies in the past and found them to be pretty useless for precision handloading. When a sizing die is .010" under the SAAMI max case dimension it just works the brass too much and makes for a loose fit in the chamber. I prefer to spend a bit more and get tighter tolerances. I've had much better results with Redding, Forster, and Whidden. Some of Hornady's products are great but I won't use anything from them that needs to be very precise. If you were to say that Hornady is better than any other brand, even though you hadn't actually tried those other brands...that would make you ignorant. [/QUOTE]
