[QUOTE="MoBoost, post: 2076020, member: 3455"] You can single pass form 243 from 30-06 with nothing "sticking" - you got a setup problem. The result you want .002-.005 neck tension, aka .272-.275 neck ID 1) Run a case through the die without decap/expander - measure neck OD. If it doesn't measure .280-.310 you do have a bad die. 2) What is neck thickness? You want it in .010-.012 range, some brass has very thick neck and needs to be turned; just mind how the die is ground from your neck OD measurment 3) Measure expander OD - you want it in .272-.274 range - it should barely touch on the way up. If the neck is ground on the tight side - the expander will have to do more work. [/QUOTE]
