[QUOTE="Eaglet, post: 166543, member: 3756"] BillR, All your calculations were right. 0.279 is the dimension your neck will have once the bullet has been inserted having a 0.011 case neck thickness. Where you missed was in ordering the right Bushing neck size. Usually you want it between 0.001 and 0.003, as you can see, with the 0.012" neck thickness, that neck tension was able to hold the bullet. For hunting it's recommended to have 0.002" or 0.003 whichever gives you better accuracy. So, instead of ordering a bushing of 0.279" it should have been 0.277" and or a 0.276" then all would have been fine! Good Luck! :) [/QUOTE]
