[QUOTE="Susquatch, post: 1749152, member: 31264"] Most neck turning tools turn the outside of the neck while it is held by an inside Mandrel. Necks must be sized to fit the Mandrel perfectly in order to get consistent wall thickness. I have seen recommendations both ways. Most of the best benchrest shooters turn necks before firing but that's likely driven by the fact that they usually have tight necked chambers. With standard chambers, I don't think it matters at all so I usually do it up front as part of my overall new case prep process. Another thing to think about is the dreaded donut. Depending on my chamber and my bullet length, I might be pushed one way or the other. [/QUOTE]
