    Sizing them in a standard FL die will stuff the bullet the neck is sized about .005" under bullet diameter,
    Best solution is to use a Redding body die bumps the shoulder back and sizes the base with out touching the neck
    I use it as the last step on my Dillon 550 when loading .223"s
    6x47 and rewa like this.
