[QUOTE="Welderboy11972, post: 1277359, member: 91394"] [b]Re: Neck turning, before or after fireforming, before transitioning to bushing neck sizing for[/b] I also use the Sinclair neck turning mandrels to neck size. My .257 mandrels are .256" for the neck sizing mandrel. .255" for the turning mandrel. It's the same on the .308 mandrels. ( .307" neck, .306" turn) I would assume that you could get different sizes. I just haven't looked. I use the neck mandrels to neck size. ( after I've turn the necks when they were new brass) Neck size in my redding neck die ( no expander ball) Neck up with the neck mandrel ( in the die from Sinclair) It will almost set bullets with the weight of the handle of my press. A bushing die might work better, because you can change bushing sizes to neck down. It would work your brass less. This has given me the best results as far as neck sizing my brass. It also helped to lower my ES and SD. [/QUOTE]
