[QUOTE="antelopedundee, post: 1880967, member: 107384"] Depending upon how thick your necks are after turning, [I try to get them around 0.014 or so] and the neck diameter of your sizing die you may not need to do any neck expansion after sizing. If you end up with .003 or less under bullet diameter I'd go with that. I'd use the Sinclair mandrels interchangably as expanders if I needed to. If one is using the Redding competition seat dies, they are somewhat delicate and not recommended to be used with compressed loads or too tight necks. [/QUOTE]
