[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 394372, member: 9215"] The meaning of the first two posts is that you can't control it with standard dies, there is no such adjustment. Use Lee Collet neck dies, they will take care of all the variables as well as it can be done and without any fuss. If you wish to do a shoulder bump, get a body die OR bore out the neck of a FL die a few thou over max so it won't make neck contact. There is no benefit in more than 1 to 1.5 thou of "bullet tension" (an interferrence fit actually), any more will only increase run-out. [/QUOTE]
