[QUOTE="Kroberts, post: 1315288, member: 71507"] Thanks everyone, It is necked up lapua brass. At the time I bought it Norma hadn't come out with, or I didn't know about the Norma brass. If asked about it before and was essentially recomended to stick with the lapua. But I'm not too picky what I use as long as it works well. I finally made it through them all to be able to fully prep the brass. Which means remove the donut and neck turn to clean up the uneven thickness from expanding. I've noticed that it's not uncommon in necked up lapua brass to have one side about 1 thousanth thicker than the other. That much night not make a huge difference. But why not correct it if I can. The micrometer in using goes to the 4th decimal place, but it's not a blade style. It one that had the 5/16" circle platforms that meet. So I might not be getting the measurement exactly where it needs to be then. I wonder if I could make tgin blades that fit on the micrometer to get accurate measurements. It's sounding like these measurements are a way to ensure good brass life while maintaining good performance. Thanks for the info everyone. Kyle [/QUOTE]
