[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2185043, member: 115658"] Neck turning needs to be done carefully, turning necks beyond a certain point will prevent adequate neck tension to hold bullets upon neck sizing - the neck walls will be too thin and neck sizing compression will not provide enough neck tension to hold the loaded bullet. A slip fit will indicate adequate clearance between neck and chamber. Turning necks will also make for less run-out meaning your ammo will be more concentric and accurate Upon neck turning it is common to see one side that has removed brass and the other untouched. My suggestion would be to turn a few necks so they just clean up, fire a few rounds with starting loads, check for slip fit, size including neck size, then check for adequate & uniform neck tension to hold bullets.
