[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 733051, member: 2011"] When fire forming from a shorter base to shoulder to longer base to shoulder length while reducing the caliber, say .284 to .277 it is common to only partially size the neck leaving a "ring" to head space against. This procedure ensures no case stretching when fire forming. How to duplicate this process where you are not reducing caliber is the question. Maybe size w/7mm-08 die then partially resize with 243 die? Not certain of the best way on this one.... [/QUOTE]
