[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 499135, member: 2736"] Rt 2506 is right about the 308 being shorter but it's only .010 thousandths and after you size down the necks they will grow longer and make up some of the length if not all and more. Turn the necks just enough to clean them up and after sizing you shouldn't have to turn them any more. After sizing them down they "MUST" be trimed to make them uniform and I recommend .010 to .020 shorter than the chamber or SAMMI Spc.which ever is less. I always recommend having brass with the proper head stamp but this is not allways possible. The main reason I recommend sizing down is to prevent neck thinning. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
