[QUOTE="Centre Punch, post: 64965, member: 3048"] alg, It depends on how much you need size your necks in order to get sufficient neck tension, the use of neck bushing dies is probably the best way to accomplish this. Seat a bullet in your chosen case (not turned) with adequate neck tension, about .002" to .003" and measure the neck diameter. Compare this with the neck diameters your smith can cut for you. You can then decide if you want to neck turn based on the clearances that can acheived. If you decide to shoot factory ammo make sure your new chamber is not to tight for the factory round, by also measuring the neck. I suggest you arm yourself with all these measurements and decide whether or not to neck turn before having your new barrel chambered. Ian. [/QUOTE]
