[QUOTE="Svashtar, post: 3062971, member: 112241"] Most mandrels are the standard .001” under or “turning mandrels” that are .002” under. As far as I can tell you only need the bushing to minimize the working of the neck. If you use a turning mandrel whether you use a bushing or not seems to be irrelevant, because when all is said and done your ID of the neck will be .002” under bullet diameter. The 21st Century mandrels and Sinclair ones should be interchangeable in each die body as a general rule. I waited for the Sinclair but they were out of stock at the time so got the 21st Century die body with window and their coated black turning mandrels initially. I’d love to get an induction annealer, but that’s $2k after all is said and done, so after looking at EP, the double torch Bench Source, the Annealeze, and the Ugly Annealer, I went with the Ugly. $309 shipped with torch, and I’m pretty impressed with it. Just my .02 cents. Like you would love to get more input from Brent. [/QUOTE]
