[QUOTE="aushunter1, post: 1739021, member: 57533"] Imo neck sizing is more about preserving your brass by reducing case hardening & not working the whole case. In saying that you still need to anneal. The amount of 'runout' produced in any sizing process using comes down to the quality of the dies. A lot(probably most) BR shooters remove the expander from even their top quality dies & use a specific sized mandrel to give a specific amount of neck tension but also to improve concentricity. I would also say neck turning would also assist in this, which is why they(BR shooters) do both processes. Using the mandrel in place of the dies rod improves alignment. Still, you really need to get yourself a concentricity gauge to measure all this otherwise there is no point. [/QUOTE]
