Friend has run into a tiny problem.
308 Win full length sizer. RCBS die I gave him.
He insist on full length sizing for his bolt rifle.
He measures the cases every time.
He noticed that the cases seem to grow .08 to .012 every time.
He does lube the neck inside and out.
So he has to trim them every time.
His load is in the upper part of the scale.
Now......I was thinking.........
When sizing a case, the neck is sized, in the die, smaller than .308.
Then the sizer ball is pulled through to resize it to, hopefully, the correct size.
If the die is sizing the neck to small, the force of the ball would pull the neck up while sizing.
Make sense?????
Now.....if I open up the die neck sizer, so that it is close to the ball sizer diameter, it would lessen the force of the ball pulling through the neck.
Thoughts, comments??????
