[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 324730, member: 4191"] If the neck tension is too loose, the bullet can set back when it engages the lands, seating depth can change on any rounds in your magazine under recoil, and the bullet could pull out of the case mouth when you try to eject an unfired round. Try loading some rounds and ejecting the unfired cases and see if the bullet comes out with the case, with the muzzle pointed up. If they come out, then measure the seating depth again to see if it's changed from the initial setting. If all looks good, you may have enough neck tension. Also, take a loaded round and try to shove the bullet in deeper with your fingers. The bullet seating depth shouldn't change and the bullet shouldn't move. If it does you don't have enough neck tension for a hunting round. [/QUOTE]
