[QUOTE="Mark611, post: 920140, member: 49531"] I have a Savage FLCP-K 308win, I use Lapua brass and fully prep them before loading them, I turn my necks just enough to remove excess brass off the neck and usually end up at 14.5 thousands all the way around, I use a Lee neck mandrel collet die to neck size my brass after firing it before trimming for the next reload, I have had very good luck with this die for a neck sizing only operation, my run out about 1 thousandth of an inch or less using this die, I have tried bushing dies that I have had much worse run out then this Lee die! I'm no fan of Lee's reloading equipment I'm an RCBS/Redding tool user I'm a firm believer in you get what you pay for! but I will say this die from Lee has been the best neck sizing die I have used! and my accuracy from this rifle is under 1.5 inches @ 200m, I know this may not seem to be great accuracy for some but IMO from a stock factory rifle for a 10 shot group I think its pretty good and I'm sure I can make it better:D I forgot to add the mandrel is 305.5dia my 175gn SMK's are 308.5dia.
