L E Wilson neck size problems

[john444334]

Revisiting my old .222 rem L e Wilson dies, My other cal. with these dies has always work fine

I have been using L e Wilson neck die on .222 rem
Winchester brass
after Case prep and charging with exact load

Only to find the bullets seemed to tight for the cases and not sliding smoothly or consistently using the L e Wilson micrometer seating die.

The die bushing says is .243 Recommended by a reloading expert of some years ago but It measures at .240 and .241 flipped

Bit more research I think .248 might be a better choose but at £25 a go I don't want to experiment with to many Just wondering what others use?

I think it depends on how thick the brass is on the case neck

Always throught it would be a good idea to start a thread that enabled SD Members to post their Redding Neck Bushing Die trial requirements so those with bushings, of the relevant diameter, could let them try - before they buy - for a small postage covering fee.

Just a suggestion
