[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 689347, member: 17844"] Sorry if I read it wrong . I apologise . I was talking about the idea of a body die around 1968 over here however the term Body die did not get applied to this concept until much later . I was about 18 at the time and by 1969 I had cut down my first dies while serving in the Army . My concept was to come up with something that did away with the old Full length sizer with the expander ball and made it much easier to size a case by separating the two jobs . This allowed portable reloading gear to be carried in the field. The improvements in accuracy was a bonus that I did not plan on at the time and as time went on I found partial neck sizing helped also in my bolt guns . Now I partial neck size with Lee Collet ( with a base washer ) or Redding bushing dies . The Military Armourers saw what I was doing and I guess many people could have copied the idea . I fully recognise that others would have come up with the same ideas as it was a fairly natural progression of the needs of improving reloading . [/QUOTE]
