[QUOTE="Seabeeken, post: 2175674, member: 68015"] I agree. Thanks. Neck tension was a place where I had huge success getting better numbers. First, I stopped neck turning mainly because I found that buying quality brass to start with it just wasn't necessary. Second, I shoulder bump .001-.0015 and use a bushing for minimal working of the neck. Last, I use a Q tip and a small amount of Lee case lube to lube the inside of the case necks and let dry. This brought ES numbers from 2 digits to single digits in MOST cases. It also stops bullet weld in ammo that could be sitting for an extended period. The whole key to the numbers is CONSISTENT BULLET RELEASE. Annealing, lubing, etc all helps. Being a navy guy it only took me 47 years to figure it out. LOL [/QUOTE]
