[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2847405, member: 101791"] I stumble across this on to this in the late 90's. The other part of this is I shot a 308NM. The shoulder length is shorter than the 300WM case, and the neck is longer. Trying to get 308 NM neck sizing die good luck. A years more. So changed to a 300WM neck sizing die. It only sized about 3/4 of the neck on the 308NM case. I do have them now. I also started to weight the cases and changed to Win Cases. Found them to be lighter. I had several hunderd of 300WM cases. So I group them with a grain or two groups. All at the same time it stop my case separations. Only lost case do to primer pockets after that, and neck splitting. Got that fixed with annealing one time. Simple, but not what I do as of today. I have done much in load development in a long time. Once I find load that I like or happy with that's it. That what I use going forward with that rifle. I am not into tonnage for bullets. The heavest is 200gr in my 338WM @ 3220fps. 500 yds has been my limits for range. I now looking at the 6mm/2890AI to extend that range to 700+ yds. It's brand new to me and there isn't much out there on loading. That find with me too. Something I can work on and develop loads for it. I did sent you how I going after the loading process. I do have QuickLoad disk. I just need to my reloading shack that I need to build. That will start in about 2 weeks. My son the dentist is working over my teeth presently and getting even with me for when he was a kid and I was the old man. 🤣😂 [/QUOTE]
