Neck Size Torque ?

Hi@all
I would like to try different Torque's when i do my neck sizing to find the torque who gives the best groupings.

Did a search, but no luck so far.
BUT, i have a strong suspicion that this question has been asked before so i hope there is some that could point me to a shop who sell what i need :)

OR, i have to make my own and weld a torque wrench to the handle of my reloading press. :rolleyes:

Why dont anyone make any dies with a torque function as well ?

TIA
 
I thought torque was a rotational force. Dies don't turn, necks aren't squeezed with a turning force.
Capturing the press arm force would give values unique to your press I'm sure. This force would be affected somewhat by your sizing bushing -vs- neck size and thickness and hardness.

Forget torque.
 
Thnx for the reply's.
Will check the Wilson dies and K&M.

I have already read Jesse's pages and that was the turning point from an idea in my head to actually try to do it.
He proves my idea that different "torques" on the neckziser should be tested to find the one that gives best groupings,
but he has a opposite approach to my question.

I use Lee Collet, which is fine but i miss a tool that tell me when i have i.e. 7lbs on the handle or 15lbs if
that is the number that gives best grouping in my rifle.

The main point is that i want to use the exact same force on the handle every time.
