Found an extra twenty minutes in my day today.
So I chose to spend them in my reloading shack depriming and sizing some cases with my Lee Collet die.
Every once and a while I like to check the inside dimension of the necks,so I did, everything OK so far, then I measured the outside.
...not so good there was about a .oo3-.oo4
difference between the top of the neck below the flair to the base of the neck.
The base being larger, so my necks are smaller at the top, larger at the bottom.
Anyone run into this?
Put some through the full length sizer and they measure the same top and bottom.
Thinking I might like to try a different NS die.
Also had to go to a .310 spud to get a .308 IS dia.
Hopefully giving me .003 neck tension on my .311 bullets.
