I've taken the easy route. I put the edge of a nickel between the die and shell holder. Works like a charm.
I read in Speer #13 (I believe) to use a matchbook cover instead of a nickel. That would probably bring the die closer to the holder than a nickel would.

When I was resizing .223 brass for my single shot NEF, I used that method and it worked well.

But when I got an AR and tried to use brass I had neck sized for the NEF, in the AR, I found out why you must always full length resize brass going into a semi. I thought my AR was a lemon until I figured out I was using neck-sized brass. Once I full-length resized it, my AR fed perfectly.
