[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2878859, member: 115658"] I routinely turn necks when reforming .270 Win & .30-06 brass to 6.5-06. I also turn necks when reforming 6.5mm Creedmoor to 6mmCM. Neck turning assures a nice slip fit of bullet into fired brass. I periodically sharpen my neck turning tool/cutter blade with a diamond file to assure a nice sharp edge and corner. I cut into the shoulder and stop when there is no radius. No problems with donuts. I chuck .473 head & smaller diameter brass directly into my DeWalt cordless. Bigger stuff uses the Lee clamping chuck. I also turn necks when making lots & lots of .20P brass from .223. The blade gets a refresh sharpen every 200 .20P cases. Serious rodent ops require lots of ammo. My RCBS neck turner does not look as nice as the K-M. I plan to get a K-M as adjusting the RCBS cutter between 6mm & 6.5 is somewhat of a chore. [/QUOTE]
