[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 247052, member: 9215"] "It is possible that all cases develop do-nuts but the only way to tell is if your fired brass has an inside neck diameter after firing that is very close to caliber diameter." Wood's point is quite correct and well made. I abreviated my comments before and failed to mention that ANY case which stretches when fired will eventually push a part of the thicker shoulder into the neck. It will form a "donut" then, just as case refoming does. I was considering that most reloaders will toss cases before that becomes an issue. If we adjust our FL sizers to barely bump the shoulder each time, the cases should chamber easily and stretch the least possible amount. That prevents both donuts and head seperations for quite a few reload cycles. [/QUOTE]
