No, I haven't.

In fact have found that type of die (which also includes the basic Lee Loader) usually results in very concentric seating--and neck-pull--IF the necks are either sorted or turned for uniform thickness.

In fact, around 15 years ago I decided to try a Lee Loader again, after not having used one for many years. (Started both rifle and shotgun handloading with them as a 13-year-old.) Noticed they made them in .22 Hornet, and since I had a very accurate Ruger No. 1B Hornet, ordered one.

That rifle would average well under an inch for 5-shot groups at 100 yards, but with the Lee Loader it would put 5 under half an inch. In fact, the last group I shot during the test not only measured .43 at 100, but four of 'em went into .18!
