6.5x47 Sizing Issues

[jpistolero02]

I wrote a few weeks back about having issues bumping the shoulder back on my once fired brass. Some of you guys suggested waiting for a few more firings before trying to bump the shoulder. I just finished firing my first hundred pieces so I am ready to load them again. I now have an issue where there is not very much neck tension when trying to seat the bullet. I can pull the bullet out with my fingers with little effort. What am I missing? I am not not running the case through a sizer die at the moment since it wasn't bumping.

I think you are saying you have not run your brass through any type of die what so ever. You will need to resize the necks of your cases somehow. Either through a neck only bushings type die, a neck only sizing die or run them through a FL die without bumping the shoulder. Your Post on bumping the shoulder was good advice, but you must reduce the neck size after every firing so it will have enough tension to hold the bulet.

There are threads on this topic if you do a search. Here are a few.
