[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 1092649, member: 39764"] I'm finding that the lead (chamfer) on redding sizer bushings is a bit too abrupt to allow an easy neck size on 300 WM brass. To that end, I'm machining my own bushings from spherodized oil hardening drill rod and increasing the lead in to allow easier sizing. Seems to wok just fine (you can actually 'feel' the difference) when you size plus the necks come out within 0.002 or less, in concentricity, consistently. Opinions? Using Whidden custom machined dies btw, checking concentricity on a Sinclair case jig and insertion (projectile concentricity) on a PT&G (Hornady) jig. [/QUOTE]
