[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 688498, member: 17844"] + 1 on that . I have found the same thing. On some types of cases and with soft brass at the shoulder it don't work that good. The bset thing to do with an old type Full length sizing die with an expander button . Cut the top right off and drill out the neck to turn it into a body die . then do your neck sizing with a Lee Collet or a seperate neck die . This way you have way more control over the two seperate jobs. This is what I did to all my FL dies back as far as 1969 ! I like to think I invented the body die but others would have got the same ideas some place I guess . Bulk reloaders for autos can get good service from dies that size all in one pass but bolt actions go better with seperate sizing dies I find anyway . [/QUOTE]
