[QUOTE="Ballistic64, post: 73790, member: 3401"] Recently while messing around with cases for a 220 Swift I have I noticed the bullets are getting shaved during seating (new brass that was FL sized).The case mouths were chamfered,but still shaved the bullet.Just screwing around I ran a neck turning expander into the neck of a new FL sized case and chamferred the mouth.The case still seemed to shave the bullet a little but not nearly as bad as when I didnt expand the neck.For the time being (waiting on a new barrel) this is a factory Rem chamber.My question being is there such a thing as an oversized expander ball for Redding dies or is there another method I can increase the neck ID during sizing? When seating a bullet the neck tension seems to be way more than what it needs to be. [/QUOTE]
