[QUOTE="milo-2, post: 1788360, member: 33622"] One thing I have noticed for myself especially, and from friends, not too many guys who use bushing dies go back to a reg die. Where I have seen guys add a bushing die to existing sets of dies. Now there are instances where reg sizing dies rule, but I loathe pulling an expander ball back through a neck. Lose the misconception about the reg die overworking a couple pcs of brass setting the die up, just pull the guts out of the die till it is set, then put it back in, run that pc in far enough to expand it. Plus, I am sure someone will attempt to flame me, you talk of pushing inconsistencies to the outside with the expander, does seating a bullet not do the same thing? And don't let someone tell you one size neck tension fits all. Quick story, 3 of us chambered 6 XC's, all were expensive components. All Norma brass, we kinda did load dev together, or conferred with each other. We were all hung up with rifles that shot in the mid .3"s, I finally stepped down to a .267 bushing, others followed and now our guns were shooting in the high 0''s, low .1's. It pays to experiment.
