[QUOTE="nheninge, post: 270795, member: 13085"] [I]" Neck turning is to center the round in the neck" from bounty hunter [/I]Neck turning does not center the bullet in the neck, In fact it's still just as off center as before it was neck turned. The only way to truly center the bullet in the cartridge is to sort cases by zero neck variance...[I] and then neck turn![/I]Each bullet set in a case with increased neck variance will actually have the bullet offset with regards to the rifling and the cartridge by the same amount. Neck turning just uniforms neck tension circumferentially around the bullet for uniform release 1) Compare the following: a custom barrel (lilja, hart brux etc) chambered with a factory neck 2) A factory barrel chambered with a tight neck. Which would shoot better under range conditions? Probably the custom barrel due to the expert lapping etc IMO People that take the time to turn necks probably just build better ammunition. If you are anal enough to turn necks on a factory barrel, then you are just trying to avoid "stacking tolerances" meaning that by allowing small errors as you build your base snowballs exponentially into an inaccurate trainwreck! Handloading feeds the OCD monster in us all, just dont forget to you will NEVER control all the variables[I] even with a perfect load[/I]. [/QUOTE]
