[QUOTE="bubbaonpc, post: 1762944, member: 92435"] I have neck sized for 10 years...BUT..I also check my shoulders and length after each firing..,the shoulder will grow on ya and one day, you WILL slide the bolt forward to find its hard to lock your bolt...which is why I check shoulders every firing. After 3 firings I Anneal and FL size, check shoulders and length, then go back to neck sizing. After reading the advice on LRH and the vast majority FL size with a bump...I have dedicated my new 6.5 Grendel to FL sizing only...and so far I'm happy with the accuracy. I am going to a FL with Neck bushings to see if I can tighten up the group. If you don't use a dedicated NECK Sizer Only, at least use a FL with Neck Bushings. I'm sure all will agree that Neck Tension is one of the biggest parts of an accurate reload. I shoot 100-300 yards...the guys on here shooting 1000+ know their stuff, and what helps or hurts. I enjoy my Lee Collets, the ease of use, wonderful accuracy but LRH crew has me trying a new approach on a couple of guns. If nothing else, it gives me an excuse to shoot more ! [/QUOTE]
