[QUOTE="jd5521, post: 1693474, member: 94694"] Regular neck dies, be they bushing or one piece are bad about doing just what you have described, because there is nothing that aligns the case prior to its neck being sized. There is one exception, the Lee collet die. Those dies work entirely differently, and I think that if you try one, you will find that your results are much better. There is a learning curve. You need to read the instructions, and take the die apart so that you can see how it works. Don't run a set die without a case, and remember that you change neck tension by changing to mandrels that have different diameters. [/QUOTE]
