[QUOTE="cape cove, post: 1552482, member: 95503"] There may be a few reasons for the discrepiences in the measurements. Are you using the Lee lock rings that came with the dies. IMO they are worthless. I always replace them with good lock rings like the Hornady style ones. Another reason is there could be some slop in the bushing or in your press linkage. Being that this is taking place with both the sizing die and seating die I would look more at your linkage or bushing. I once had this discrepancy with my sizing die and discouvered that my press linkage was cracked. It was hard to find, had to examine the linkage real good to find the crack. There are also other things to consider such as are all your brass fired the same amount of times are they the same headstamp and from the same lot. etc. [/QUOTE]
