[QUOTE="PAMONTY, post: 28442, member: 1520"] I seem to have a tight spot in the neck of my brass, Its down near the shoulder and bottom of the neck. I can take a fired brass and start a bullet down the neck, the bullet will stop when it reaches this junction.(NECK/SHOULDER) Seems like a donut at the bottom of the neck. I have to think this is not good for ES. Fired 10 rounds this morning ES was 87 fps. I can feel MORE resistants when seating bullets, They started down with even pressure then increase as they break thru the neck into the shoulder area. I reamed the inside of the neck twice now. Tonight I reamed for the second time, bullet droped staight thru into the case with no resistants. Resized the brass and the tight spot returned. Now I measured the shoulder to base before resizing and after. Only moved the shoulder back .002, If I don't bump the shoulder I have a stiff bolt- if I do I have the neck tension problem. Has anyone dealt with this before? Equipment list: Norma 6.5x284 brass Redding [s] fl bushing die. Redding shellholders in .002 increments. Thanks[/s] [/QUOTE]
