[QUOTE="Kevin Cram, post: 239511, member: 2215"] It would be a good idea to skin turn your necks. You don't have to get them to clean up 100% but 80% would be suffucient, just enough to knock off the high spots. From there use a ball mic to measure the wall thickness for unniformity. A set of calipers has a flat on the jaws and is giving you a false reading. You'll probably end up with .014 .015 neck thickness. Your .334 bushing should work but I would try a .336 myself. I also de-prime my cases with a seperate die and remove the threaded rod that holds the de-capping pin in my type S dies. It shouldn't be causing it but maybe the sizing ball that holds the de-capping pin is too large and double sizing the neck crooked, once with the bushing and once again on the way out with the sizing ball. I have a Type S for my .308 Win and I had to use a smaller sizing ball becasue it was making contact with the inside of the neck on the way out and giving me a larger than desired neck. [/QUOTE]
