Cheers JTO,
I looked at these , and if I'm totally honest they're a bit more than I'm prepared to pay (should have maybe put that ) .
Was thinking mid budget ,good quality .Doesn't always go hand in hand I know .
If I had a spare £300 , 21st century, definitely.
Cheers

It's beginning to feel a lot like Xmas (The boilers on the fritz and the kids have emptied my bank account ).

As an aside I've watched a number of these full custom rig system vidioes including those using a mini lathe and none to my mind improve upon the simple approach of holding the K&M in a vice and running the brass in with an electronic screwdriver.

Just remember to protect the cutter with leather strips.

Much easier to have “No turn necks”.
Unless you’re a top competitor in shooting disciplines.

You no doubt beat Muir to this guidance but as someone who's been down and back up the path of "advanced reloading" it really is something best left to each rifle enthusiast to work through their system.

A.. neck turning

B.. bushing die

'B' but as no doubt your question seeks to expose the two are closely linked given not all brass/cases are equal!

C.. Both or neither

 

[Muir]

Neither, but if you must, get the neck turner.
Again though, what rifle? ~Muir

Howa Custom in 243 , trued action , Sassen 1 in 8 twist barrel in a Remmie R1 varmint profile action fully bedded into a GRS stock.
I realise that neck turning will probably make less difference than getting my breathing right , but what can I say, I'm a little OCD .
