Another FCD fan here, especially for pistol rounds, but I use it a little differently - only on rounds that won't gauge.

Because I shoot mostly lead, the FCD will deform the bullets and as mentioned above, will cause more leading, and reduced accuracy as well.

If I'm careful when seating the bullets, and the dies are properly adjusted there will be a small percentage that need to be put through the FCD (I gauge all my semi-auto pistol rounds, or check in the gun's chamber so I KNOW they'll cycle ). The rounds that I use the FCD die on, I put into my "plinking" bin.

Good shooting,

Jim
