[QUOTE="Gene, post: 338335, member: 7402"] The case headstamp is not important. With a micrometer, measure the diameter of the neck area of a loaded round. From this, deduct .002" or .003" and that is diameter of the bushing you can use. I usually order two bushings to begin. One of that size, and another smaller. Sometimes, the larger bushings do not afford good neck tension. Neck tension is very important. You may want to order other bushings a thou apart and try them. [/QUOTE]
