[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1402765, member: 2736"] +1 When using a bushing die, you need to remove the expander ball for a better sizing, plus it just works the brass twice instead of once and defeats the purpose of the bushing in the first place. The neck is already larger because it was fired and now fits the neck chamber. All you want to do with the bushing is size the neck down to grip the bullet. If you don't turn the necks then an expander may be the best way if the neck thickness is not uniform, but as said, the expander then controls the neck size. If you want to use an expander ball to set bullet tension a standard set of dies are all you need. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
