A new set of dies is only a couple of hundred bucks, and they are 
something like 3" thick. So even if you take an inch off, at my rate it 
will take at least 5 to 10 years before I take em down so much I need 
new ones.
I'd be careful with your approach an inch might be to much.  If the dies get 
to short you'll knock the ram out of the ram guide housing?  BIG TROUBLE!
