In answer to Petrel 800, this is merely an oppinion, okay?
But I have learned to not trust Lee rifle dies.
I use their carbide pistol dies exclusively, but I have never had any kind of good luck with their rifle dies. Crushed shoulders, inconsistent COAL, and the fact that I had to snatch a couple dozen o-rings from the shop to replace the ones that seem to get destroyed after only a few uses...
How do I use them? I do a bullet seat first, then do the crimp...never do them together...I don't even decap with dies anymore...just use a universal decapper...tumble clean,check length and trim if needed, FL resize or neck size, flare the throat for straight wall cases, and tumble again...prime, label and seal in a baggie for future fun.
I shoot 223 out of a 12" Contender. When I run my brass for that and other bottleneck cartridge pistols I have, I only neck size. And I don't crimp.
Single shot pistols and rifles are wonderful about that...they generally have a good, tight chamber. That resizing die should be turned out at least a half turn after it bottoms on the shell-holder. Those cases are fire-formed to your chamber and will provide very good accuracy like that...you just neck-size so that neck tension will retain the bullet in place...thats all you need.
Sorry about climbing onto the soap-box...I am not trying to preach.
Hope this helps some
