[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 422151, member: 21068"] Neil should be in the process of building me some dies for a 6 Long Dasher. He said that he'll include a different bushing for different neck thickness/tension. I am assuming that you've only got one bushing? I bet that he could build (maybe even already has some built) a slightly bigger bushing for you to only size down for .002 instead of .004. On another note, I don't know for sure that anneaning is worth all the trouble of doing it. What I mean is; I've shot the barrels out of a couple of rifles after Thousands of rounds and used the same batches of cases for those rifles from start to finish..........Never did any annealing at all. Perhaps I would have gotten a little better ES's or something if I had annealed, but the reloads shot as good (sub 1/2 moa) as when the brass was new right up till the barrels started going bad. Used WW brass exclusively. I know that some folks anneal and believe in it wholeheartedly, just as others believe in abrasive bore cleaners or moly coating bullets or Chevy/Ford Trucks or....ect. But perhaps with the NJ dies not working your brass as much as standard dies do, your brass won't ever work harden the way that some does? Might be worth a try...............Opinions may vary.
