[QUOTE="screamrider, post: 1065948, member: 52942"] Great, thanks for clarifying! Yes, I noticed the exact same thing about neck wall thickness. When I used the measured thickness of the walls [(wall thickness x 2) + .308 -.001) I was getting .341 or .342 for bushing size, which would clearly be way too big. I now see how normal calipers are insufficient for measuring neck wall thickness. I measured a few more loaded rounds and I'm finding a min measurement of 0.3385. I think I may just go with the 0.337 bushing. Again, really appreciate your help. [/QUOTE]
