    I like neck bushing dies for a couple of good reasons, first one is you are only working the neck of the brass as much, or as little, as is needed, no pulling your brass back over the expander plug on the decapper if you don't want to, I found that pulling the neck of your cases back over the expander was one of the biggest causes of stretching your brass. neck tension if adjustable by using a different bush, and as I do a fair bit of wild catting cartridges, the one die can be used for many different calibers on the one case if you want to, for example, I use a 222Rem Redding neck bushing die to size the necks on four different calibers, 17/222, 20/222, 222 and 250 Myra, all with just the change of one bush, a very cheap option.
