[QUOTE="HoytemanPA, post: 54258, member: 286"] Brent, Thank You for the clarification. I fully understand now, ( following a little more hands on). I had based my bushing selection solely on what worked for me with the Weatherby. The fired neck size in that one is .337, now that I know that number does mean something. The loaded round measurements on the Norma Brass that was fully turned is .333. I purchased the .332 bushing for it and the resized case necks are actually .3315-.332. ,without the use of the inside sizer button, causing the reason for my misunderstanding. It followed the finished bushing size to a tee. Just got lucky I guess having a chamber in between the huge rem chamber and a tight neck custom. Now the Rem Brass, Rem chamber does show drastically different results that follow exactly as you further explained. With the larger chamber dimensions, and the inside sizing button removed, the finished size for the neck ran through the .335 bushing is actually .332, I tried seating with that extra tension and that just ain't gonna work. So I stuck the inside neck sizer button back in the die and it came back out to .335. I guess either I got some more turning to do, keep on using the inside sizer button, or go back and reread the rest of what's been posted and try to decipher it. Is there any major disadvantage to using the inside button? I guess I was missing something. Thanks alot, HPA [/QUOTE]
