[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 951691, member: 12"] MIkeCR It is real simple. Your first and ONLY answer is always NS regardless of the loaders experience or you even having a clue what cartridge as in this case! Plus **** little "qualifications" as you say it for a newbie to try and decipher. This is your first post and typical of all. Go find one of your previous posts where you "qualify" how the newbie is supposed to check safely if the rounds will even chamber. Nor have I ever seen you discuss the reliability factor. Did you explain how to remove the firing pin with a firing pin removal tool when he chamber tests them to prevent blowing a hole in the wall or floor when he accidently touches the trigger as they will do? Did you explain how to get a Wilson Case gauge and use it. You cannot seem to grasp the fact that 95% of the shooters here AND ALL of the newbies are going to hit SAAMI and then some at some point, go over and then back off after they realize just too much trouble but they are all trying for speed initially, like it or not. You are the proverbial pink ball in a basket of white ping pong balls and do not see it. **** few will load like you are saying. You create the false impression that when you shoulder bump with the redding body die you are only touching the shoulder which is absolutely false. You are sizing the body with a standard Redding body die, like it or not. Jim Carstenson always gives .001 body sizing on every one of his conversions UNLESS you ask for him to just ream it out. Do you even understand there are dies out now that ONLY bump the shoulder and not the body? That will drive a new reloader crazy trying to figure that one out. I cannot tell you the number of times I have seen some poor smuck on a range with a stuck bolt and "They told me I only had to NS" the last 10-20 years. They invariably have a hammer or 2x4 and go to beating the bolt which knocks it off and then he has a big gunsmithing bill. Not to mention the unreliability factor. IMO your constant harping on only NS is liking giving a Maserati to a student driver and saying "floor it"! Think about that just a little. NS with body sizing CAN work sometimes very well IF you know all the nuances that you constantly leave out just like your first post here, but proper FL sizing will always work reliably for a newbie. Maybe it is time for Len to get a couple of good articles on how to set up dies and the pros and cons of sizing each way with "the qualifications". [/QUOTE]
