[QUOTE="pineywoods, post: 657481, member: 48843"] I never thought it was the neck...just the ogive of the aforementioned partition. I was thinking that down the road after a couple firings the brass may start running into the throat (which only has .035 freebore) causing higher pressures. Hence my question as to whether or not I should trim shorter than SAAMI spec. I hope this clarifies things. On a side note, I ran afew factory Hornady SST's through the gun & they are a little tight but will chamber. I sharpied the bullet & it had complete contact with the lands. I will not be able to load some bullets even close to max OAL. [/QUOTE]
