[QUOTE="3sixbits, post: 60996, member: 3661"] It's winter time. I can always tell when we have to much indoor time and not enough time at the range. Neck turning won't gain you anything in a factory chamber! Unless the reamer was at the limit of it's life and cut to the vary small side of SAMMI specs.. What is the purpose of neck turning in the first place? We are turning necks to achive a clearnce fit. How much clearnce do we want? One thing that you need to know is what is the dia. of the chamber's neck.
