    Some good thoughts coming out here.

    for my situation I only load for 2 rifles, they belong to me and in different calibre's.

    I neck size using Lee collet dies and as Kiwigreg says, as long as you check they fit the chamber before loading all good.

    I have decided to neck size for a couple of reasons

    1-easy and no lube
    2-using a case that is a match for my chamber
    3-less working of the case, should improve case life. not a huge one for me but it does figure
    4-Lee collet dies have a good rep for runout, not that I measure it, just roll the buggers and eyeball it so hardly scientific.

    Just my thoughts

    Cheers
