[QUOTE="TOM H, post: 72873, member: 306"] Me I would do the 80% cut see how they shoot and seal can always cut some more off and see if an improvement. I turn alot of neck for my tight neck rifles etc and one thing is cann't add anything back. You can cut too much neck off on a factory chamber. Say the thinest part of the neck miked at .014 I'd turn neck to .0145 or even .015. The thickest part of the neck extends all the way down the body of the case and brass will flow up inside the neck which forms the donut so you need to ream the inside of the neck after afew firings. Sinclair sell different size inside neck reamer for a reason. When you get into bushing type dies for the factory chamber that 20% uncut neck really isn't a big thing. You want to see an even gas seal around the neck and that is kind of a given in a tight neck rifle. Well good luck. [/QUOTE]
