[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1762400, member: 69192"] Wow good question [B]Nimbormar10[/B], made me think a bit on this one!? For me "neck-sizing is simply reducing the expanded brass from the mouth of the case to the shoulder of the case, and "that's" the only section of the brass that gets resized back to original dimensions of the case. And...for me full-length resizing brings the entire casing back to original case dimensions from the case mouth to the base of the case. To me the most important aspect of full-length resizing is bringing the outside diameters of the casing back to SAAMI or factory dimensions, and those dimensions ought to include shoulder bump. So.....I guess one could say that the .001-.002 thousandths bump is not full-length resizing, but again I believe that the most important aspect of full-length resizing is bringing the outside diameters back into SAAMI or factory specs; there's a "very" fine line on this one, technical and could also depend on the chamber dimensions.
