.270 Win is the only bottleneck cartridge I load. I neck size only with the Lee collet die.
I've been loading these for years, but only now am I questioning my neck tension. I'm not having any problems with my loads, but I just want to be sure I'm doing it right.
Funny how sometimes reading this forum seems to raise questions in my mind that I didn't think about much before.
Anyway, how do you test for proper neck tension? The only thing I found on a search was to load a dummy round and see if I could push the bullet deeper by hand against a 2" X 4".
