[QUOTE="Anders Bruun, post: 327110, member: 21088"] Well - now I have made my 2 step neck seizing with my Redding comp.die. The result may be ok, but it gives less necktension, and so I need to add .001 or .002 more tension .........da.. ! then i have to make a 3 step seizing - not funny at all. I went with the Lee collet die - worked quite well, read instructions and looked at videos on the internet. No problem, but it gave me .003 - .004 runout messured on ogive - not bad, but still not what I was looking for. Back to square one In a state of panic I vent back to my 1 step .334 bushing - what I did, was to widen the edge of bushing, ever so slightly. The result from a trail batch was - 1 /.003 1/.0025 and the rest was under .002 messured on the ogive. I guess, that for unsortet, unturned brass, and allowing for some unevenness og the bullet - this is as good as it gets. I will now accept this runout, and move on to load development. Thanks for your inputs Anders Bruun [/QUOTE]
