[QUOTE="X-man, post: 813661, member: 8416"] How can brass not work harden after each firing? The neck expands to the chamber and then retracts to what you see....Unless your chamber is set up for a zero sizing, but we aren't talking about that here. So your brass does not flow....Ever? I have a K&M inline seater with the "force gauge" (somewhat accurate) and also a custom built seater with a piezo sensor (extremely accurate) to measure the bullet seating force. You are suggesting you never saw any difference in 40 firings? You put over 40 firings on a case and never had to touch the necks it in that entire time? Can I assume that since your brass doesn't work harden you never had to anneal them either? I must be misunderstanding you? I did not start out FL sizing everything. I notice an consistent accuracy improvement when I started Fl sizing in my 6mmbr so I made a few phone calls to Bruce Baer, George Gardner, and a few other of the top gunsmiths around an asked their input. If you have a problem with that talk to them and tell them how to do it right... This is Long Range Hunting and we don't run chambers that tight because the guns stop working. I have been to a few Sniper's Hide Cups (didn't make this year) and the field is full of guys with precise rifles that wont run. Are you suggesting otherwise to the OP? [/QUOTE]
