So a little data to throw on the pile:
I turned 9 necks down to a neck OD of 249 and shot them this morning. The fired OD is once again 250. A bullet will now slip into the neck of a fired, turned case with only the slightest drag going in. Accuracy was no better or worse vs unturned. I'm thinking I need to talk to the gunsmith and see if he will measure/double check his reamer. I wonder if it is a 250 or 251 neck reamer and the reamer was mislabeled/ground wrong. Right now, I'm planning to turn all of it down to 248 and move on.
Either way, I achieved some wonderful accuracy with Varget and un-turned brass this morning: http://forum.accurateshooter.com/threads/my-new-22br.3981971/page-2#post-37542368
