[QUOTE="MMarshall, post: 571338, member: 38541"] My first box of 300 RUM Nosler brass last year had two split necks in it. I called Nosler and emailed a cell phone picture of the necks and the lot number. They quickly replaced the brass and I've been happy ever since. The weight sorting they do is very good. That 50 count box has 41 pieces that are dead on matched and the others are +/- 0.1gr. I have not measured neck thickness or turned the necks, minimum gain there for a production chamber. You can't add material but you can certainly take to much off. Custom reamers can be set up tight and guys turn their necks to get optimum clearance. They true their walls in the process. I always check run out with a NECO after loading and last nights batch was .0015 or less. Most came in under .001, those are very good numbers. I did have large variations with Hornady brass for the 375 Ruger. I did turn those necks as little as possible to get the walls balanced. If I recall they had a variation of .004 on a few necks. In that cartridge at that time there was no other brass available, [/QUOTE]
