[QUOTE="338hammer, post: 186426, member: 10182"] Natty you have been given very valuable information from very knowledgable gents. ANother opinion which goes along with that already stated is; All of my competition dies have undersized expander balls so that I do not pull the neck forward. I use all neck sizing dies after a case has been fireformed to a particular chamber. If a case neck for whatever has been damaged I cull it as a hunter case and full length size with a standard expander ball. Now on a wildcat based on a .014 neck wall thickness that I currently shoot. I recently received a new lot of brass from the same company with a neck wall thickness of .009. Amagine my dismay when the first bullet to seat fell in the case. SO I measured the I.D. of that neck and several others and figured which bushing was required and went back through the lot without the decapping pin in after changing to the required bushing. To date on this method I seldom have lost a case and never have to anneal. I also use sleeved seater dies with micrometer adjustment. 338 [/QUOTE]
