[QUOTE="wapiti13, post: 139143, member: 2212"] Cruizin, After you resize you case and seat the bullet, you mic the outside of the necy to determine the correct bushing for a Redding die. Depending on how much bullet tension you want, you then order a bushing usually .002-3 smaller than the size you measured. You can adjust tension as required with different bushings. I just saw a thread where someone was going .004 and got better groups. You just need to experiment with your set up. If you measure the before and after firing neck width, you can see how large your neck is. You usually need .002+ to release the bullet correctly and not get a jammed case in a hunting rifle. Benchrest shooters go tighter. Compare the two measurements and see if you have enough release. Usually, a good mic will do the job. A concentricity gauge is a good tool, but not needeed to answer your question. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
