Default First bad Sizer from RCBS

Actually I have had one or twomore where I had to modify a hair. But this one is for my 204Ruger. It leaves a bad scratch on the shoulder/body intersection. I tried to clean out, but its a bad burr. Oh well, RCBS's number has been busy for an hour.

They will take care of you, I bet. I got a bad set of Nitride 41 Magnum dies from Hornady years ago. I called and went round and round with Steve Hornady about them but all he would say is, "Send them back." REALLY made me mad the way I felt they were blowing me off and I expected them to get the dies and then send them back telling me they were fine and I was an idiot. The problem was in the seating die.

Anyhow, I sent them to Hornady. A week later I got new set of dies and letter from Steve saying I was right...apparently they had omitted a step when making the dies. So it all ended happy. But I still don't much like Hornady dies.[&:]

Shoot, they want me to send it in for replacement. Figured they might send me one out. Now, probably got to wait 2 weeks for a new one.

Well, that's what I thought with Hornady, BigCountry, but apparently they think all of us are scam artists. I told myself perhaps it did do some good to send mine back to Hornady as I figure when Steve Hornady saw what it was doing to cases when seating a bullet, he went down and helped someone pack their belongings and leave the plant.[:@]

Steve is usually a pretty straight upguy.

Agreed, I think Steve Hornady is very serious about producing good products and I've shot their bullets forever...prefer them really. I just don't think reloading equipment is their strongest suit. I think I'll stick with RCBS and Redding and Dillon for the progressives.
