[QUOTE="ChrisInKY, post: 2882528, member: 94377"] I load for 10 calibers. Each die is 'permanently' mounted so the only variables happen at the top of the die or a shellholder swap (below the die). I 'felt' I had to do this, because the dies I'd get from some factory weren't any better than 'factory quality'. The machinist(s) at 21st had craftsmanship that left nothing to be desired. I purchased a die body for each rifle caliber I needed to neck turn. They're virtually the same, but the reason I bought the 'extra' ones was so I didn't have to move them around in my turrets and could keep the one for my single stage right on-hand. But, I found I could take any one of those die bodies (bought over a span of several years) and substitute it anywhere in my loading process without a visual variance. IOW, the way they cut the threads into the dies never once changed. If anything was ever off-kilter, it was something I was doing and I could spot that right away. If you opt-in on a Grizzly, let me know so I can be jealous. 🤣 [/QUOTE]
