[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 317780, member: 11717"] I basically agrre with Jeff... However, I think I am leaning to the Type S FL Bushing die because you can set it to just barely bump the shoulder and size the body while partial neck sizing the neck. This gives a little more consistancy because you use the same process each time you size. Also, I talked with one of the Redding technisions and if I understood him right The only advantage that the Type S competiton bushing dies have over the regular Type S bushing dies is the micrometer adjustment. Other than that they basically do the same job. Now the competition seating die is a much better die than the standard. It does a much better job of aligning and seating the bullet. That being said, the absolute best dies wouls be custom bushing dies that are made to your fire formed brass. I have heard from some that Neil Jones' seating die is better than the Redding competiton seater and he is quite adamant about that opinion as well. Custom dies are FL that size your brass to fit your chamber perfectly every time. One process, as opposed to body sizing then neck sizing. If and when it's in my budget, I'll be getting some Neil Jones dies and selling my Redding dies. -MR [/QUOTE]
