    I haven't used an expander button on any rifle loads for years.

    Maybe once in a while on a dented neck I think I can salvage.

    That's another reason I like redding dies as they have a cap for the decapping pin that will not touch the sides as in my pick above.

    Ahuh, I thought that capping pin retainer looked larger as in a resizer button

    Sorry mate, you're right. I just checked. Has the button on it. Haven't loaded any 260 for ages.

    Now I can't find my friggen knurled cap
