[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 603864, member: 29890"] Yeah I got a little bench rifle experience! Try using a body die in conjunction with a redding type s neck sizer bushing die, measure the neck of a fired round and get 3 bushings, .002",.003", and .004" maybe as much tension as you need get the 3 bushings 3 to 5 thousandths under what the fired neck measures. You may be able to get the combo where you have just the right amount of tension to run the powder charge you just tried. I have a 250 sav lever gun that runs 87grn spire points at 3160 from a 19" barrel, you won't find any data that even comes close to saying that with a stubby barrel, but I've picked up a couple tricks! Good luck. [/QUOTE]
