[QUOTE="Trnelson, post: 1487038, member: 42308"] I have had the best results, in my rifles, by neck sizing and only doing more than that if I had a hitch in chambering. Usually it’s after the third or fourth firing that I have a need to bump the shoulder back. If your rifle works better with a FL size, then run that! As far as maximum case length, I keep my cases 0.005” of case length shorter than the actual maximum length my rig can chamber safely. Just cast the chamber and it will tell you everything you need to know. I rarely have an actual need to trim before the fourth firing. I anneal after every firing though. If your rifle delivers what you are looking for by trimming to 2.605” then run that length! Reloading and long range shooting is a game of consistency. Record and control as much data as what you have to to get to the results you are trying to get the rifle to accomplish the results you are looking for. Some rigs are just more finicky than others and need more attention to produce adequate results. Lastly, and most importantly, have fun and be safe. [/QUOTE]
