I have a Redding full length resizing die with a bushing. I have the Redding S bullet seater. I wanted a collet neck sizing die. Nobody makes them, for 6.5-284. I did some reading and went out and bought a Lee 6.5X55 swedish collet neck sizing die. This die + a 7/16 washer on the shell holder, gets me the desired results. $28 instead of $200, that works for me! The once fired brass chambers smoothly, now I have to reload some rounds and try it out.
Just thought I'd pass this little tid-bit on.:cheers:
 
The Lee collet dies are great if properly maintained. You will still have to use the full length sizer from time to time.
Lee will make up the correct collet die for the 6.5-284 as well.
