[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1097972, member: 10291"] I would start with the dye set so it sizes to 1/32" of the shoulder junction. Use lube on the neck. If the expander/stem is giving high runout, or if you just want to safeguard a against it, don't tighten the stem nut down completely, leaving slight play in the stem. You could also place a small rubber o-ring over the stem, between the stem nut and the top of the dye. Tighten it just enough to leave some play in the stem. You should also have either a body dye or a FL dye since after a few firings the cases can become tight and will need to be brought back down to neck size again. I used this same set up for about 10 years with my 270 back on the 80's and had no trouble getting sub .5MOAnout of an old Model 70. [/QUOTE]
