[QUOTE="marksman1941, post: 3020102, member: 68542"] You should be able to neck size just fine. To verify, I would neck size a single case and then see if it chambers in your rifle easily. Scirocco II’s are identical external construction to the 1, but with improved reliability of expansion. There were issues with the 1’s penciling through critters sometimes. Never having loaded 300 wby personally I can’t direct you. My 300 win mag loves IMR 4831 under 180-200 gr bullets, but I don’t have experience with weatherby loads. I’m not a fan of the interlock. I have a sample size of exactly 2, which resulted in a lost deer. They’ve been used effectively by numerous folks but I tend to stick to bonded premium bullets (I almost exclusively use federal trophy bonded tip, terminal ascent, and Norma Oryx). Theres nothing wrong with a copper solid. If your outfitter says don’t use them, I’d avoid just to keep the peace. But it’s hard to say what experiences he had with coppers. Bad shots, or low quality bullets potentially. I also recognize the irony of saying this in light of my distrust for interlocks. [/QUOTE]
