[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1442185, member: 94491"] Im playing with that right now in my 7 mag--I'm pretty sure its going to be a unique animal based on your own brass, chamber, bullet, dies used, case prep, necks annealed/turned or not--etc From everything ive read the general consensus is .001-.002 for most bolt guns/most brass, and .003 for semi auto ( to prevent bullet setback with out crimping)--I did read an article where a guy actually extensively tested from .001-.006" and he said that anything over .003" consistently gave him less accuracy in all his testing situations but if you anneal you may need a bit more, if your brass neck thickness is thin you may need a bit more, its going to tarry for each rifle/brass/bullet/die combination [/QUOTE]
