[QUOTE="Gene, post: 388750, member: 7402"] I prefer bushing dies, all mine are Redding. With bushings, you control the amount of neck tension, which has a great impact on accuracy. I bought a Lee collet die, and it is junk. You can neck size with a standard non bushing die by simply raising the die a 1/8th turn above the shell holder. Bump refers to moving the shoulder back just a tad to make chambering easier, usually after brass has been resized 4-5 times. Read the dies manufacturers instructions before you do so. Thumbs up on Lapua brass. I know nothing about Nosler brass, but it cannot be better than Lapua. Your reamer manufacturer can tell you which dimensions fit the correct chamber. [/QUOTE]
