[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1655079, member: 48043"] For the heck of it just now I just made a dummy round (whelen) with a 270 (fed brass) as a parent case... I ran it through my 30 year old rcbs 30-06 dies then ran it through the 35 whelen dies and trimmed to square at 2.50" This one hasn't been fired yet so she may not be entirely square but measures .384" at the base of the neck and .382" at the mouth. I just do not see a heck of a lot of difference it this cartridge no matter what it's made from. I hesitate to use 270 or 25-06 brass as the brass expansion may not be uniform, but I'm not seeing it on on a wet lubed casing. [/QUOTE]
