Been reading a lot about expander mandrels and, particularly, the use of 21st Century expander mandrel (0.001 below bullet diameter) and turning arbor (0.002 below bullet diameter) over the range of mandrels they offer, differing in 0.0005 in size. I current Forster FL resizing dies for all my reloading.
How many of you use the turning arbor, or expander mandrel, instead of going down the route of setting neck tension using the the caliber specific expander mandrel kits? I found some chatter about this in light discussions from thread a few years ago, but thought I would ask in a dedicated thread.
