[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 666983, member: 5302"] For box magazine bolt guns, a bushing 2 thousandths smaller than a loaded round's neck diameter is typically enough. Sometimes a bushing only 1 thousandths smaller works, or maybe one 3 thousandths smaller. Depends on the case neck brass thickness and metalurgy qualities. And heavier recoiling rifles need a tighter grip on bullets to keep them from seating back from impacting the front of the box magazine. It might take some testing to find out what bushing diameter is best; lighter grip is better for accuracy. Use what works best for your application. [/QUOTE]
