[QUOTE="Ackley Man, post: 270422, member: 16583"] Bounty Hunter and Buffalo Bob are dead on. The only thing that you should do by turning the necks when using a standard SAMI spec chamber is to shave off the high spots on the necks which really will not impact accuracy enough to go through the effort. If you don't have a tight neck chamber forget the neck turning as you will only ruin several pieces of brass during a learning process that will not accomplish anything for you. If you really want to get into the tight neck chamber aspect, which does requires neck turning, you will need your gun re-barreled. However, if you intend to use it for standard hunting a tight neck chamber is not they way to go as a couple of grains of sand can prevent chambering of a round because you should only have 1 1/2 to 2 thousands of clearance per side between the neck brass and the chamber neck. Worse yet you could end up with a stuck case. Even worse yet the stuck case could be a loaded round! Take the neck turning tool back and exchange it for a concentricity gauge and start checking your bullet run-out. That is something that will help your accuracy in a standard chamber. [/QUOTE]
