+1 Hornady Custom grade, with a micro seating stem. My thought was since it's their baby, I'll use their dies.
I use the sizing die without the decap/expander ball, my process I use a universal decapping die and 21st Century expanding die/mandrel.
Just as well, as had I used it the ball came with machining grooves enough to remove materiel from inside the neck, and the rod collet will not thread into the die without cross threading, unless I pull up while starting the threads (pat your head and rub your stomach)... I polished the nicely hardened ball, but still...
All of my brass is resized 6.5G brass, and while waiting for Starline, bought some PPU for the interim but never used it. Both sized well with only minor loss due to personal learning curve.
