[QUOTE="Talkyn, post: 817702, member: 68891"] I believe it refers to the actual diameter of the chamber where the neck of the cartridge will sit. My understanding is that best accuracy is often from a tight chamber, but "tight" doesn't really mean anything without a reference. Specing a neck size in your rifle allows you to run a desired neck size on your brass and ensure a close fit. I just know the theory a bit you'll have to wait for more knowledgeable folk with real experience if you want practical advice on actually choosing a neck size. [/QUOTE]
