[QUOTE="Sflutes, post: 1574910, member: 106464"] I ran a federal 308 case through my FL hornady die the other day. The neck definitely need to be turned and nothing crushed, it was once fired and not annealed. I have a Dillon progressive loader and the problem I had was the die can't be lowered enough to bump the shoulder far enough back. I was going to pick up an rcbs 308 die and have it shortened to set the shoulder first then run it through the 6.5 die. I looked for 30 TC dies, but they are all on backorder. I have a neck Turner on its way so maybe ill get a 308 die and experiment with it. A single stage press may have more flexibility with adjusting the sizing die. [/QUOTE]
