The blue box i have run 26900-26935-26920 with a berger .24315 seated measuring at the pressure ring.260 Rem said:My reamer has .269NK and I am not turning blue box Lapua.
My Redding S-Type die measures .4695" just inside, that would be the smallest dimension it can resize the base of the fired case. There have been a slew of reamers made with a 470", .4705" base @ .200" on the drawing. These are the chambers folks have problems with and get a stiff bolt lift and a click at the top of the bolt lift. Many conversations on how to fix this with custom dies and all that mess, when a correctly specd reamer will nip this in the proverbial bud. Considering how brass has a spring back, and 4695" die and with a .470"/.4705" chamber is bad JuJu.whunt_64 said:Please explain "clickers"
Yep they are pretty consistent at .013. I thought they were supposed to be a little light.?johara1 said:John, Do you have .013 neck thickness in Blue box brass? If your bullets are .2431 at the pressure ring, what is it at the shank?….. jim
