[QUOTE="Smokinghole, post: 1380626, member: 103142"] I'd barely call it a wild cat. It's no more wildcat than those doing 7-300 WSM for the neck/brass availability. Plus maybe I'm doing something wrong but my cases typically get longer when I do a neck down. I just did a RP .300 saum case and it grew almost .007 from necking down. Where did your 0.0357" neck length loss come from? I'm genuinely asking because my neck down cases gain length, I've done some neck up wildcats (6dasher to 6.5BRX) and they predictably lose length. Physically necking down is condensing the original neck, it has to either go into the shoulder or into a longer neck. To me it's worth the price of a reamer all the same as a custom reamer is to people that want to set the 195s out in a 28 Nosler. This isn't highly technical wildcat case forming, not changing shoulder angle, or major case dimensions. Keeps the boat tail junction above the shoulder junction and in normal mags, plus no action customizing. The loss in capacity is minor in my opinion when looking at the positive benefits. [/QUOTE]
