[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2819458, member: 15054"] I use the lee seater die.. I did modify it and the FLS die. I polished the inside of the FLS die and polished the expander. The seater I drilled deeper and applied a larger smoother taper cone to the seater stem to allow it to touch the bullets farther down the ogive. None of that made any difference that i can measure in group size ,, just makes me feel better and cases size easier. Here are 2 pictures of groups from my savage .308 that i cut the barrel shorter with a hacksaw. This was shot at 200 yards..just as quick as i could load another round and get on target and pull the trigger..so no rest between shots. 4 shot group measures .919" center to center. and the 3 shot is .550" 2 different days. I did not sort or weigh bullets or brass..The brass is Lapua shot and hand cleaned who knows how many times as i just toss it all together. My gun does not shoot good enough to make much difference. Lee FLS and Lee seater die and Lee single stage classic cast press. 200 yards [ATTACH=CONFIG]52210[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]52211[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
