[QUOTE="BJH, post: 1491993, member: 93876"] BJH, Which bushings do you use to step down? I'm curious as to why you step down in three steps, I could be doing something wrong, but my smith told me one step was all I need and have not had any problems. Have you run into problems using one step? Sorry about the delay, I have been hunting the last couple weeks. But, yes, I ran into problems trying to step down all at once. My gunsmith also told me that all i needed to do was run the case through a sizing die and load. But I tried that on the first case and the neck ended up inside the body. It crushed it and shoved it down inside the case. I do not remember which bushing I use off the top of my head. But I have found that small steps to get to where I want it to be is the easiest and cleanest way. It only takes a few seconds to switch the bushing in the die, and having to run them through it a couple extra times is not too much trouble to save the headache ruining some or all of the cases by trying it all at once.
