    I have found with the dies i am using i get less neck tension using a neck die.

    I pretty much full length everything except the 303.

    Yes on Lee dies Ive noticed that. Latest Ive seen is 1thou neck tension as any more is pointless as you use the bullet to expand the neck back up anyway instead of the die.

    I do 3/4 of the neck on a 303, some ppl do 1/4 to 1/3rd.
