[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 3058947, member: 10755"] This is the problem, pounds required to seat bullets has nothing to do with bullet release. It solely is force required to overcome the expansion of the neck, nothing more, the brass neck is not putting that much force on the bullet, not measured in weight anyway, only in resistance. If we take the militaries specs, their ammunition MUST have a minimum resistance pull of 30lbs…is that the resistance from the neck gripping the bullet or the crimp they so often use? Not to mention the sealant they often use too… Bullet release is very different to bullet seating force. Once the neck has expanded by the bullet, it’s true only job is to keep the bullet from falling out during transportation and handling… Cheers. [/QUOTE]
