    rewa liked post by rupert On thread : Neck die trouble shooting
    The case necks may have hardened due to multiple firings, so they spring back more after going through the neck sizer. So, anneal a few and try the neck sizer again.

    Townsend Whelen and Mike Bellm say the same thing. How you shut the action affects the headspace which affects the flight of the bullet. Mike Bellm has some interesting info about headspace for break...

    GWH liked post by rupert On thread : Annealing, neck turning all that attention to neck tension and true Centering
    Another factor is case reforming - any significant shift in the brass will require annealing, maybe more than once. My first efforts at turning 308Win into 243Win cracked at the necks because I did...

    Fire-cracking - when the cartridge is fired in the barrel chamber a very hot flame follows the bullet down the barrel. The flame erodes the bore of the barrel. If you have a look with a bore-scope...
