just loading some rounds for my 25-06 and the cases which were full sized in my new redding die have little or no neck tension on the 100gn ballistic tips.
bullets measure .257", expander ball measures .257"
the sizing precess felt normal and i felt the expander do its work on the way out.
the speer bullets which also measure .257" appear to seat with more tension - how wierd is that, although i only tried 3 cases as thats all the speer heads i had
brass is RP and twice fired at most, with 53gn n160 under 100gn speer bullet. cases were tumbled before sizing and ultrasonically cleaned in h2o, fairy and vinegar solution after trimming to length.
any thoughts ?
