[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 365573, member: 5302"] Those 47 rounds were fired about 1 minute apart. Other cases I've reloaded over 20 times with the same tools and process have waited 2 to 3 weeks or more as loaded ammo between shooting them. I've pulled bullets from these cases after they've set around for a couple months or so and the force required to do that's about the same as when the case had been shot and reloaded the first few times. I've not had them sit around for more than 3 months before shooting them. I've been told that after that, the grip on the bullet may loosen up a bit to be noticed at the longer ranges. Fired cases had about .344" neck diameter from the .345" diameter chamber neck. Those necks were sized down about .010" in the die with a .3335" neck diameter. Case neck diameter with the bullet seated was about .335" with their .0135" average neck wall thickness and a .3082" diameter bullet. [/QUOTE]
