I believe a "body set up" is a full-length sizing die, set up such that it "bumps" the shoulder back just a few thousandths to promote easy chambering of the cartridge while keeping the work-hardening of the brass to a minimum. Neck sizing only cinches down the outer diameter of neck against a mandrel, leaving the fire-formed body untouched. This is sufficient if you are going to shoot the rounds through the same gun, but even then, the bodies of the neck-sized cases swell slightly with each firing, and you eventually get sticky chambering and extraction. Then it's time to "bump" the shoulder, am I right? </div></div>
OK so is this a different die that I need to purchase? If so could you post a link to it?
Thanks again

I should have known what a full length die is, I use one to reload dohh... I was confused on the wording.
Know I saw that there are 2 types of re-sizers, I use the full length die, the other I found is a collet neck sizing die... I had some real nice GGG brass and tossed them because they would not chamber, now I am wondering is if I had the collet die it would have fixed this issue because the only thing my buddy & I could think of wrong with these was that the shoulder was not to the correct specs. We measured everything except the shoulder....
If I am wrong please correct me.... Thanks....
