    At the same time we need to be respectful of other peoples opinions or we will turn this into another FB. If you wouldn’t say something in a face to face conversation then why would you post it here? Just my opinion.

    I run everything through the Lee FCD. As has already been said I really like the carbide ring on the pistol dies because it does a final resize on finished cases.

    There are so many different options you can use for bullet seating/crimping, that you have to just try them and see what suits your taste. I've met and talked to different people with differing opinions, none of them are wrong, they all just like different things. That said, I would first get the FCD for a caliber you shoot that goes in a tubular magazine, like a 30-30 Winchester. Those calibers absolutely need to have the extra crimp, out for no other reason, than because the bullet can slip in and compress the load, or fall into the cartridge, if it's not a case filling load. This can cause problems.
