[QUOTE="Mike6158, post: 457518, member: 1039"] I'm discovering that the better dies (I think your Hornady dies fit into this category) each have their pluses and minuses. I use Forster dies in a Forster Co-Ax press. I use their benchrest micrometer seating die. While the die gives me nice control over seating depth I still have to sneak up on the final setting for each round due to variations in bullets. If I decide to seat .020 off of the lands and I seat .021 or .019 it bugs me. So I back the die off each time and gradually approach seating depth. In other words, it's not just the die. A good die will give good results. The finest result comes from the care of the reloader to ensure that everything is done correctly. That's my 2 cents on the "which die is best" question... [/QUOTE]
