[QUOTE="milo-2, post: 1788413, member: 33622"] You had to ask, lol. It is rare I measure necks with seated bullets, mostly because I go off felt seating force and testing. It sounds stupid, but numbers coming from a caliper here mean nothing to me. Over the yrs, I have taken readings and my bushings take the outside dia of brass to the number stamped on the bushing. I culled bushings to get where I am today. I do recall, we started with a .269" bushing, we added tension to new brass after a chamfer, seating a bullet in new brass felt like throwing a hot dog down a hallway. The XC phase was 2 yrs ago, I am sure a .268" was given an opportunity, I do not keep notes, ever. I remember the basics. The bullet we were using here was a 110 Sierra, but I remember my first XC I shot 105 hybrids(moly'd) and did not use near the neck tension to make it work. Was it brass composition, or bullet dia, characteristics of the bullet, that I do not know. [/QUOTE]
