[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 582675, member: 25383"] I've got one case that I move the shoulders back .31", and do it in two steps. The only reason I have to do this in two steps is that I have to trim the necks back with a jeweler's saw. Use nothing but Imperial Die Wax. I do a deep anneal before ever starting starting the first operation. Another case that is similar, but longer has to have the neck opened up from 30 caliber to .375, and then brought back down to 35 caliber. I've lost maybe a half dozen cases over the years. Another I've been doing is .225 Winchester brass necked up to 30 caliber and then moving the shoulder back quite a lot. This brass gets annealled twice during the operations as it seems to really be prone to work hardening. I take this all the way up to .338, and bring it back down in two or three stages. Cases that are hard will often split necks during fire forming gary [/QUOTE]
