Looks exact and then some.....
 
The one thing I do like is the adjustable sizer. I'm not sure that's the best way to go about it, but I like the effort. I know there are a few other solutions to that problem on the market, but nothing has really taken off for one reason or another.
 
30 seconds of intro and I stopped watching the first video.

Very interesting die.

but the were no feeler gages in the box?

"but the were no...."

Thought that might have been F. Guffey in the first video

First select obnoxious music when selecting music for reloading video; and then get a bunch of compulsive gigglers for the action shots. There are a bunch of silly reloaders that are impressed with that, I'm not.

Feeler gage and reloading: The press has threads, the die has threads, when raising the die and or lowering the die precision adjustments can me made with the feeler gage. Reloaders insist on using a degree wheel pasty when adjusting the die, they insist on estimating the conversion from degree to thousandths. Most dies have 14 threads per inch, for me it is much simpler to go straight to thousands by measuring the height of the die above the press and measuring again after making the adjustment.

Above the shell holder; same thing, there is no need to convert degrees to thousands, I go straight for it.
And then there are transfers, I use transfers; transfers are unknow to reloadersm I am thinking reloaders should get serious and I believe they giggle too much.

I'm starting to grap those feeler gauges.
Although if a fella measured before he made adjustment and after adjusting x amount of clicks, he would then also know how much he moved EXACTLY.
Just a thought from a guy with 8 fingers n 2 thumbs.

You should try the new whidden click adjust dies. Drives most reloaders to the curb but not me. Im a fan of exact clicks and no transfers

TWO words...... Skip's Die Shims.

You'll never use feeler gages again.

OK.... you musta' lissened closer than me.

Exactly how is there an "adjustable sizer" involved?

I spend 'YUGE money getting dies made to fit my cases, "adjustable" sizing of a tapered case would be awesome (Neil Jones' actually offer almost a half thou of adjustment but they are unique in that regard IME.)
 
Adjustable in the sense of not having to loosen the lock ring on a factory die. That’s what I think they’re saying at least?
