Just an opinion, but years ago I tried neck reaming. it was extremely difficult to produce case necks with uniform thickness that were concentric because the reamer wanted to follow the neck bore and only reduced the neck thickness of the neck. but did not uniform the thickness. Then I tried neck turning and had much better results.
The problem was that with different case brands and thicknesses, I had trouble getting the turning mandrels to fit realy good in the different cases. I ended up making different size mandrels for each caliber.
looking to up grade even more and getting better results, I looked at different neck turners and realy liked the Sinclair tool with the expander mandrel concept of sizing the case neck first to fit the turning mandrel and then turning the outside of the neck to consistent and precise thicknesses.
There are other brands of neck turners available now that weren't then and they should do good also.
The best thicknesses, most uniform and concentric necks I have achieve to date is by using the expander method on new cases before the chamber has a chance to move neck off center because of the differences in thickness before they are sized or fired.
I prep all of the new cases and run them through the sizing mandrel first, then i turn the necks (By hand because I found better precision
that If i used a drill or motor drive for the cutter) It is slower but the results were better for me.
Using bushing dies, uniform neck thicknesses are extremely important, so time is not important for some processes.
If all the turning is done correctly, the chamber has the last word as to how precision your brass is. When fired the first time my cases are not only concentric to the bore, (Very important to precision loading)
they are uniform in thickness there is no run out inside and outside
of the neck.
Precision loaded ammo relies on precision cases and this method has produced the best for me. I know that when I load, that I am starting with precision cases and any run out or concentricity found after loading is the loading process and no fault of poorly prepared cases.
Turning by hand is no doubt slower, but the results are better in my experience and that is the purpose of all this turning in the first place
to get better accuracy and more consistent bullet grip.
Other people get good results differently, but this works best for me.
