[QUOTE="Dave Tooley, post: 1662730, member: 106972"] In the past some have thought that you get better uniformity in regards to neck tension. Size the neck a bit smaller than necessary and then run an expander mandrel through it. It may sound good but in 40 years of competition I've never been tempted to try it. Good brass, good dies, good chamber, good bullet, good load are 98% of it. I've never seen any difference on the target with minor variations in neck tension. I couldn't sort out the other 2% if I wanted to let alone see the difference on the target. [/QUOTE]
