28 Nosler...ADG Brass. Second box different lot I'm into now. Resized the necks, chamfered necks, etc. Ran them through my wilson neck expander. While running them through the expander most would go into and out with ease. Some I had to use so much force the case would crinkle some. So I started measuring case necks before and after. .311" before .313" after. None were below .311". So I started measuring wall thicknesses. 0.0155 to 0.0168" anywhere around the case. Varied around the necks in this range. All were pretty much the same in these measurements. Only difference was some the brass would not want to expand leading me to believe that the annealing was out of wack and the brass was too brittle on this lot. Thoughts. I just got done with them and decided to sleep on it so I look forward to seeing the comments.

Never had this problem before with their brass. May anneal them tomorrow.

Yes its virgin brass and yes I lubed the necks
