[QUOTE="ScottB338, post: 2133664, member: 113037"] These technical discussions are what make reloading and this forum so much fun! Has anyone experimented with pulling bullets from assembled rounds to try and determine what “spring back” forces are involved over time with holding the bullet. By that, I mean does anyone know how much spring back tension is possible with any given neck diameter and/or case wall thickness for holding a bullet? If, say, for example, has it been determined that a neck that is .005” undersize diameter of a bullet, can only provide .002” of actual neck grip because part of that additional diameter reduction is lost to the brass yielding beyond spring back when the bullet is seated? ...maybe I should put the question on its own thread...instead of hijacking this one. Sorry OP. [/QUOTE]
