[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 51938, member: 8947"] Due to economics, I started my loading career on a Lee Anniversay kit. Surprisingly, I have found the press to be excellent and see no reason to change. I use dies from Lee, RCBS, Hornady and Redding. The best neck die I have used are the Lee Collet dies. The Hornady and RCBS are about the same. The best seating dies I have used are the Redding Competition and Hornady Dimension II dies. Again, I have nothing against the Lee, or RCBS, just like the moving sleeve. Cases are trimmed and neck turned on a Forster case trimmer and necks chamfered using a RCBS neck tool. Primers are all hand primed using a Lee hand tool-like the tray. Scale is a lee scale and I even use the Lee powder measure. With ball or fine grain powders, it will be consistent to a tenth of a grain. Although, I don't own one yet, a concentricity guage is a good investment. If you ammo is not straight, you will not shoot accurately. With all this, my ammo for my hunting and varmint rifles shoots consistently under MOA. I have never found the ammo to be the weak link in my rifles accuracy. Good luck... Jerry [/QUOTE]
