[QUOTE="LRHWAL, post: 283584, member: 5418"] If you size a lot each time you will not get 40 cycles IMHO. Maybe fitted brass and tight (or tighter) necked chamber? As an example, my 300 WM sized with a Redding neck bushing die (I now use a Lee Collett and anneal) and bumping the shoulder 1 thou every 4th re-load had me splitting necks (like a gas vent in the neck) between 7 and 10 reloads. That said the fired brass was around .340 as I recall and the WW brass was quite thin. The bushing was a .330 or .331, so I was sizing quite a bit. I've heard of 20 plus reloads in tight chambers.
