[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 754732, member: 12"] Caution on the details of Mikecrs technique and its non applicability to the majority of LR hunting cartridges. It works great IF you limit your reloads to 53,000 PSI as Mike has stated he does. Most LR cartridges have Max pressures of 60,000-65,000 and most are shot there. Plus the largest cartridge case he reloads for is a 6.5 WSSM(WSM). Both of these are not normal LR hunting cartridge parameters or even SR BR pressures. So if you are loading to Max end pressures as most here are you can dang well bet FL (body and neck) will be required or throw the brass away after 4-5 reloads. Now custom matched FL dies are your best bet to minimize sizing as he stated. [/QUOTE]
