300 lapua sizing issues

[Deleted member 102985]

Hi, I am trying to size some 338 lapua cases to 300 lapua. I keep crushing the neck when it starts into the sizer. I have Hornady bushing dies. Does anyone have any suggestions on what size bushing I should start with? Any help is much appreciated.

look inside of your die with flashlight and if you can see any flat spot of the bushing you need a bigger bushing your hitting the flat spot causing the crush. think .340-.343 I use .343 then .332 to do my 30-338 rum imp
