wncchester good post. jeo556 I don't have any experience with the collet neck sizer because all of my rifle reloading is for a AR 15. I have heard some great reviews for the Lee collet neck sizer and recently read a post where somebody tested it with other brand dies and proved he got more accurate ammo with the Lee die, but take that for what it's worth. I load only with Lee dies and don't have a lot of experience with other brands but am very happy with the ammo my Lee dies make. I also like how easy the Lee dies are to use. I loaded on a friends Dillon 550 with Dillon dies and once they were setup they were fine. They were a pain to adjust because every time you wanted to adjust the seater die you had to screw the die in or out. With Lee die you just adjust the knob on top, much faster and easier. I also like the fact that Lee includes the shell holder with their die set where others don't. Welcome.
