[QUOTE="Fox Hunter, post: 608308, member: 39861"] When one turns a case neck, what would the "minimum" allowable thickness be? I have a box of 50, once fired brass that has neck wall thickness' between .010" at the thinnest and .014" at the thickest in each case. (measured with a Redding Case Gauge) The whole lot is fairly similar. If I turn these necks to something like .0105" to .011, will the neck wall be too thin to be safe? If this is acceptable, how thin could one turn the neck and not have a problem right off the bat? The rifle chamber is SAMMI standard. It's not a custom chamber. Thanks [/QUOTE]
