[QUOTE="Gunpoor, post: 241880, member: 8358"] I have only neck sized for one rifle, a custom barreled 264Win. The only reason I opted for neck sizing was the chamber of this rifle was cut so that the brass expanded to the point that F/L sizing was overworking the brass. If I tried to set the F/L sizer so that it wouldn't set the shoulder back very much the neck of the case wouldn't even be touched. Hence, my only option was to use a neck sizing die. However, after several firings I would have to use a F/L die because the cases would become difficult to close the bolt on. The only other option in this case would have been to use a "bump die" as a seperate step to move the shoulder back as far as needed to ensure proper chamber fit along with the neck sizing procedure. The great thing about neck sizing is no case lube is necessary for this step. [/QUOTE]
