floating and non floating neck turning tool/lathe

[338 dude]

Don't overthink it it works fine for me I'm sure it would be better to know the angle match it and have other cutters but like I said I've had no problem for several years

Here we are worrying about a certain angle of cutters what about machines where you're using two different pieces in your hands I just don't understand how that can be precise at all

I hear ya.... just want to upgrade my turner I have now, mainly the adjustment to finer adjustment.

Like I said Hornady I recommend this tool and I'm not really a Hornady fan

The donut factor.... is the culprit. However, why would that be a concern other than in a Weatherby ?

I load long in the 2 calibers I load for so it really doesn't affect me which is why I have not use my inside reamers yet

Would like to go with a hand held instead of a bench set up. Running out of room to store this stuff. Guess all the handheld one with .0005 adjustments are up there in $$. PMA has blemished neck turners. 115 verses 135.

That is exactly what I do not want or do not trust to be accurate I want a mini lathe I guess

with the Hornady you have to use thier shell holders... correct ?
