I too try for about a .002 shoulder bump. If I am not too cheap and can find the dies I want, I like to get a full length bushing die so I can also control neck tension to suit my wants and needs.
I too have several years of reloading under my belt, but I am always looking to learn and change if a better way comes along.

I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects

I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....
