Well, I bit the bullet and just ordered one of these new fangled sizing dies. Hopefully it will allow me to stop having to trim each time I reload, which would be awesome. I plan on swapping out my Dillon resizer and putting this one in my RL550, and then move my old Dillon to my single stage for resizing/trimming only. Anyone used one of these before? Apparently they do work, but running an untrimmed case up into one is a disaster.

You have to trim them once .10" under max length for the first pass through the X-die, but after that they will grow about .05 or .10" and stabilize.Originally posted by motoman View Post"When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

No shit... thats badass. And I just bought several different flavors of rifle dies (.223, .308 and 30-30). I had no idea, that is awesome. Guess its time to save up and put these on the market so I can get some of these resize dies. Let us know how they work out!Comment

I use one for 8x57. Works good, but haven't more than 2-3 reloads, so not sure how long the "no resizing" will last.Comment
