[QUOTE="GW Hunter, post: 1978654, member: 90347"] I've been using Nosler brass for my .280AI. That fired brass neck measures at .314". I purchased some Peterson brass a while back and just got to messing with it. I can't believe how much thicker it is. After running the brass through my expander die (.282") to round the necks they measure at .311". After seating a bullet in a dummy round, the neck measures at .314". The SAMMI maximum cartridge dimension drawing shows the maximum neck dimension at .315". Should I be concerned about anything with these numbers? The cartridge chambers fine in the rifle. It just seems a little close... [/QUOTE]
