So I finally decided to start reusing brass rather than buy new stuff for the time being.
I cleaned out the neck with some solution and a bore brush.
But I read the stuff that came with my Redding dies for 243, and it says to screw the resizing/decapping die in until it comes in contact with the base of the shell holder. So I did that. I popped the brass into my Wilson case gauge and it doesn't seem to have done anthing. It fits into the case gauge much smoother now, but I was under the impression that Redding dies allow you to actually put the neck further down if you wish for fine tuning your rifle...as opposed to RCBS where you just get it to the shell holder and everything is perfect for 'general' rifles. Well, this thing is all the way to the shell plate and it doesn't seem to bring the neck down any further. What am I doing wrong.
