    a solution to avoid collapsing shoulders especially when necking up (7SS to 338SS)

    Thank you … yes I’m using lube I cover that in the second paragraph I wrote too much trying to make sure I didn’t waste people’s time having them respond with solutions. I failed in my goal of pointing out “using a FL sizing die with the 338 button works very well to expand these necks” I...

    a solution to avoid collapsing shoulders especially when necking up (7SS to 338SS)

    If you aren't familiar with Sherman Wildcats. Rich sells his 338SS brass with a 7mm neck and you are required to neck up. The amount of shoulders I was randomly collapsing was alarming. I was following known practices such as using a three step process to achieve the .054 of neck expansion...

    Wouldn’t you know it … because of this issue I ordered a new LE Wilson expander body and .338 mandrel as apposed to Sinclair stuff. I just tried ordering a 8mm mandrel and LE Wilson doesn’t make it, their mandrel sizing chart skips 8mm - bahahaha story of my life ”apparently they too think I...

    crushing case necks when using expander mandrel to open case neck on a 338SS

    we are certainly having the same experience…. it should be no problem going from .284 to .338 many including Rich say as much. I agree with notion these cases being too soft … I also agree with another comment about the 40° shoulder being sensitive to crushing the suggestion of an 8mm mandrel...

    crushing case necks when using expander mandrel to open case neck on a 338SS

    Just to give a visual for all viewers … the neck totally pancakes when a piece does give way and collapses … interesting enough the actual neck OD is exactly the same as a neck that fully expanded and the shoulder didn’t fail ** in this pic the .338 mandrel is hand seated in a fully expanded...
