[QUOTE="woods, post: 335668, member: 6042"] With an OD of .334" you can get bushings to give whatever bullet grip (ID) you want. Generally bullet grips are from .001" to .003". Anything more than .003" and you run the risk of creating runout from too much seating pressure. .001" might be considered a little light by some and you run the risk of bullets moving in the case from recoil or some other reason. I would get a bushing size .332" and .331" and you can play with the .002" or .003" bullet grip. You can also calculate your general neck thickness from that one measurement: .334"-.308"=.026"/2=.013" per side. This is right in the middle since it is considered bad mojo to turn below .010" and .015" is considered thick. Depending upon how consistant your neck thickness is, you may not have to turn at all.
