Lions don't lose sleep over the opinions of sheep.
I'm getting ready to turn a large number of pieces of brass for 284 shehane. Lapua 6.5x284 expanded up. Measures about .0145 after expanding.
My reamer neck is .317.
I'm planning to turn to .013" neck, giving a loaded round of a calculated .310 and .007" neck clearance.
I know this sounds kindo loose but I anneal frequently so I don't anticipate any problems with the necks sealing.
I had problems with tight neck clearance once on a 6slr that drove me crazy so I like to go loose.
Anybody have experience that screams "too loose"? I could go to .0135 or so to get a thou back. .014 would probably work.
