[QUOTE="1yotedog, post: 2783246, member: 97433"] I've seen cases measure the same overall length before and after firing which was no surprise if sized for minimum shoulder bump. Then, when resized, they "grow" about 5 thou. I agree with sedancowboy that it's from compressing the body down which forces the neck forward. To try to minimize case growth I've compared a bushing die to only size the neck with a FL Forster die that was custom reamed for minimum neck dia. reduction. On-paper results favored the Forster die though I still got a bit of case growth. [/QUOTE]
