[QUOTE="whirlwindjml, post: 2195690, member: 19793"] The lee collet die squares the neck against a mandrel. It does so without over working the neck. If you were going to use a cheaper non bushing die the lee collet is what I would use. As mentioned though. At some point the body will stretch and need squeezed. Hence a body die. A general cheap full length sizer will give lots of neck tension with no way to control it. So I don't use those for what I do. I use lee collet and reding bushing dies. I have a little of everything. Oh and the micro seating die is a convenient thing but not necessarily a need. It make for faster length changes less trial and error adjustment. [/QUOTE]
