[QUOTE="can1010, post: 2127705, member: 43193"] you need forming dies with proper body dia. so you have body support to keep case from folding over at neck shoulder or crushing at body shoulder. it is not as simple as necking down brass. the other option is buying a couple of Grendel dies and have the necks enlarged to form neck/ shoulder in multiple steps and keep steps small trying to take large bites at a time will only ruin cases. annealing will be necessary as brass work hardens and don't over lube your cases, you don't need any more than normal sizing last thing take your time. setting up multiple dies for forming is not a quick and easy process [/QUOTE]
