I am not a 'Precision Bench Rest Shooter' (BR does not appeal to me). I am a Military Match shooter. I have gotten good results from my Krags using Standard Dies, Neck-Sizing, using 'starting loads' of IMR-3031 & IMR-4895 with 180 grain and lighter jacketed spitzer projectiles (to keep pressures low), and standard large rifle primers (Winchester).


Quite understand your comment.  My efforts to get the "perfect" sizing die revolves more around reducing runout than anything else.  However, I've not only done that but gotten superb dimensionality as well.  I don't really know how much "accuracy" I'm gaining from my efforts, but by nature I'm a precision rifle shooter and reloader.  I shoot better knowing that my ammo it the best I can produce.  Spending a few bucks on these dies was money well spent in my opinion, and easy to do if anyone else is interested.
