Big Bore Reloading Dies

Who makes the best dies for the NE cartridges?
The reason I ask is that I've never been happy with my 470 dies which are by one of the big name die makers.
A case that is full length sized ends up nowhere near the dimentions of an original Kynoch round and is tight in the chambers.
Original Kynoch ammo drops perfectly into the chambers and so does old "original" BELL 470 NE brass.
The trouble comes when forming a 470 case from basic 470 NE cases and also from 500 NE basic brass.
I have got around the problem by machining up another die which slightly reduces the case body to correct size.
However as these are a well known make of die and also quite expensive, I would have thought that they should be capable of resizing a case to dimentions similar to the original cases that these old doubles used.
