[QUOTE="dok7mm, post: 1147952, member: 90080"] You'll need to measure loaded neck diameters, not fired brass diameter, and then pick a bushing .001" to .003" smaller depending on how much neck tension you desire. .002" would be a good starting point. Because neck thickness can vary .001" or more, from thin side to thick side, you need to measure at several points around loaded neck and take an average. The fired neck measurement of .3125' plus .001" will give you the approximate diameter of your chamber's neck. If you have to reduce neck size more than .005" (from fired dia. to .002" neck tension) you may have to have an intermediate bushing to ensure consistent neck tension. [/QUOTE]
