[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 1900445, member: 38048"] Sounds like your on your way to doing it right. Not many guys shooting fitted cases anymore. Practically none. I know quite a few guys that have shot 1000 yard BR world records. None of them shoot fitted cases. None of them neck size. In fact one guy that still has the record uses a special small base die and sets his brass back .007 to .008 and told me he likes brass to be very loose in the chamber. I know a couple that shot the 6.5-284 for a long time and said it wouldn't shoot good with nothing less than .004 neck clearence. They won alot. I shoot BR to be competitive and I'm not going to revert back to what guys did in the 60s and 70s. If that way was better they all would be doing it that way now. Records are dropping every yr now and it's being done with full length sizing and neck clearence. They are not doing it because they don't know how to do a fitted case. But because they want to win. You are on the right track keep us up to date with your results. It's always fun learning new stuff. I hope it's a hammer for you. Shep [/QUOTE]
