Silverfox, Re. the 17 rem casings.When you run the 204 casings into the body die, do you only run it part way or 'til the press cams over? Your pictures suggest part way. I only have the body die and trim die as yet (still waiting for reply from Redding) and if i run them right into the body die i get creases in the shoulder area and a full length neck. Am i doing this wrong? Thanks,Ken.

Sorry to all, I should have answered Ken's question a long time ago about the body die use. Yes, I adjust the body die so it just kisses the shoulder and does not size the neck down any further on the .204 Ruger casing.
