I have some decent bolt action once fired 223 brass. None of the necks are bent out of shape.
I want to size in a LnL AP, but have had some issues with the expander pulling on the neck as it came out. I am using a Giraud Trimmer and am getting inconsistent OAL due to variations caused by the expander pulling on the neck on the way out. Because the Giraud indexes on the shoulder, I need consistent shoulders.
I realize in advance this is slower, but will still be faster than on a SS. I want to neck size and then use the body die to take care of the FL (minus neck) sizing.
I have a thousand pieces of 308 brass that have a similar issue and I think I am going to check the shoulders using a similar technique. Don't have to worry about the necks since they have already been sized.
Thoughts, suggestions, & comments?
