[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 2425239, member: 93138"] Something mentioned above in this thread triggered a thought. The idea stated was that a mandrel will push any thick neck sections to the outside. Logical and reasonable that this is true. The thought that I had is, is that good? Not that having an inconsistency on the neck ID is good, just that having an inconsistency on the neck OD means that the bullet may not be centered in the throat of the barrel. That would be bad, too. I know that is part of what neck turning is all about. to make the neck as uniform in thickness as possible.. It was just that the statement didn't seem to account for, or acknowledge that. [/QUOTE]
