[QUOTE="TOM H, post: 469909, member: 306"] Bounty Hunter, I don't mean to disagree with you but have you shot SR BR. I got started back in the 80's and we used Wilson Neck dies and custom ones for the 6ppc. One thing that happens shooting off a rest as you close the bolt depending on how the die is set up you can cant your rifle in the bags. Walt Berger had a good way to set up a die like this take the firing pin assembly out and adjust the die so that the bolt would close on it's own if you released it instead of doing it by hand. You look at the Hood Press or the copy that Harrell makes that set up for a threaded die and arbor die. I don't shoot Br anymore but I do have a SB FL Type S die from redding for my 6ppc in the early days Neil Jones bushing shoulder bumping die was used and JLC was converting FL sizer over to bushing dies. I guess you could say a FL sizer was better vs NS but to me just be one less thing to worry about shooting off the bags in truth just saved me from having to readjust the rifle. I'm sure your experience may be differ. [/QUOTE]
