Guy,s Is important to have  a tool to remove dies, to save the dies, Are can you do it the old fashion way with a round piece of wood?

            Thanks Tguntrader

Rangedog,
             The group with the  star was 1 1/4", with the dillon it was
              1 3/4 ". also I made a mistake it the post. I said the die size was 11/64 I think the die size is  11/16 x 24. Is that right ( dave) should had caught this.
                      Thanks tguntrader

Ok Guy,s 
             The only test I could think of was this.I was at he range yesterday, Took along the Armand Swenson custom 45 If you don,t know what this is read Mar, 2011, starting on page 58 of the American Rifle Mazg. Also a ransom rest, we was shooting 185 Gr, sw cutters . we loaded 15 on a dillon 550 that my partner has , I loaded 15 on my star . we match the bullets as best we could to weight. THe end result was on the star the group was 1/2 less.I think because the dies with 11/64 may make a better bullets
