“Beyond presses, it's a crap shoot. No two accessories are alike, just like no two brands of shell holders are alike (no matter what the manufacturers claim)”
No ideal what manufacturers claim, before a reloader becomes a reloader they must understand ‘deck height’ a reloader that understands deck height can distinguish fact from fiction, truth from nonsense, the deck height of a shell holder is .125”. There was a time when reloaders? lowered the deck height by mindlessly grinding the top of the shell holder, or they ground the bottom of the die to increase the presses ability to size a case, again, that was and is never necessary.
Me? I tweak my shell holders to get the results I want, I can form cases that are shorter from the head of the case to its shoulder by .017” for short chambers, and someone ask, “How is he so lucky to find all those short chambers?”. I cut short chambers.
