[QUOTE="dwm, post: 26588, member: 1136"] I have asked this question on a couple of boards including benchrest.com. So far no one has recommended reaming case necks. I have inside neck reamers. My best shooting cases to date started off being inside reamed before outside turning. I found that the inside of the case necks were not uniform at all. On fired cases, the reamer did not take off a lot of material, but it did engage. I outside neck turned after reaming them. The material that was removed might have been from the dies I was using since the expander ball was kind of hard to pull through. I don't use those dies any more. No more expander balls. Not sure if it was the infamous donut that I removed or not. The 100 - 200 yard benchrest guys didn't seem to like the question. They shoot tiny one hole groups without reaming the inside. Just wanted to share this because I have asked the question before myself. Doug [/QUOTE]
