[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 1181569, member: 12"] If you are measuring necks with calipers that normally does not work and is probably the source of your inconsistency. You need a neck micrometer to get accurate measurements NOT a caliper. Not that expensive normally around a $150 or so. [url]http://www.sinclairintl.com/reloading-equipment/measuring-tools/micrometers/sinclair-starret-case-neck-micrometer-prod38096.aspx[/url] You will find that you will get inconsistent neck tension with SS media cleaning unless you use some graphite in the necks after. SS media actually is a little too good in the cleaning and makes seating bullets without something in the neck very difficult to control seating and tension. [url]http://www.sinclairintl.com/reloading-equipment/case-preparation/case-lube/imperial-application-media-prod33148.aspx[/url] the WSM can be loaded to 65,000 PSI, you will need to FL size. You are not giving anything up FL sizing over NS. Plus you load towards the max and when you have to FL size finally, you will find it very difficult to push the brass back as it will have taken a set and always be tight anyway. [/QUOTE]
