[QUOTE="flashhole, post: 433257, member: 21375"] I do a bit of neck turning, not for benchrest, but when I reform cases. I do a lot of 223 to 221 Fireball and I like to use military brass. The K&M tool works really well but you have to get all the parts, including the sizing device they call an expandiron. The expandiron sizes the neck to the proper size to allow the mandrel to fit. It also has a dual threaded mechanism that lets you do fine adjustments. If you go the K&M route get the carbide butter mandrel. It inside neck reams at the same time it outside neck turns. Also good advice to get a micrometer similar to what is shown in the link. The attached link shows what I do to make the reformed case and has a good breakout of the neck tool.
