[QUOTE="CHARLIEDUECE65, post: 1054501, member: 15083"] I should have mentioned I attempted to neck turn after getting it down to 338 with the .368 bushing. I ran it through a 338 expander mandrel which was tough and attempted to turn the necks but the case would not go on the 338 turning mandrel. Tried to expand it a couple more times and it still wouldn't go on the turning mandrel. That is why I thought I should turn the necks earlier in the necking down process. Is there too much neck tension or spring back here? I'm sure there is a simple solution that I'm overlooking here. :rolleyes: I haven't purchased the reamer yet, trying to see if I could get this brass to work first. (New to this wildcat stuff and neck turning in general, just started neck turning for a 6.5 saum) Had a 338 Norma reamer on order but there seemed to be confusion about the reamer specs and ptg called it a 338 usa? So I'm probably doing things backwards but in the end it seems to work out. Anyone have match reamer specs for the 338 Norma?. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
