As Nathan points out , dies with micrometers are easier/qwiker to work with .

other than custom sizing of the neck in a die regular dies suffice for the hunter/plinker.

There are dies with interchangeable neck sizers , but are expensive but do offer customizing to your firearm.

A true "custom" die reguires a chamber cast & could be in the hundreds .

I have Lee, RCBS, Hornady & C&H dies , but the 1 thing I do is install the Lee retaining nut with the rubber O-ring , it allows the die (seater) to float & I consistently get lower runouts doing this no matter what brand of die used.

The 1 thing I do to help set up on the single stage presses is make a dummie round, it helps to resett the die up, as the Lee collars don`t "lock"

Hope this was helpful in some way .
