AR…… Make sure the give the K&M bush with the kit that way you can use the K&M carbide mandrel with your neck turner if you decide to…… jim

You are suggesting that if I get the 21st Century neck turning tool to get it with the K&M bushing and then use the K&M carbide mandrel?

Yes, I think it will come with the kit but double check. I use them because it has a cutter to remove a donut also it doesn't require lube but i do use wax anyway……..jim

Had a nice chat with John at 21st Century. Ended up with his neck-turning kit. Went for the $!0 carbide option. Does include the K&M adapter in the kit. After years of fighting with the various Lee priming "devices" (I hesitate to call them tools), also ordered the 21st Century priming tool. A mere $277 later and I'm ready to go on neck-turning and priming. Also ordered a Whidden FL sizing die and 0.264", 0.265" & 0.266" bushings, with the 0.267" on back-order.

Thanks to all for your help.

I,m having a 6mm dasher built by long rifles inc. I need advise on what reamer I need. 0.270 neck or 0.2735 neck. I will be fire forming lapua brass. I'm very new at this so please help. That is the two reamers they have on hand.

Thank you,

Jim

Get the .2435 neck>>>> that way if you can get your hands on "Gold Box" Lapua brass you will have the necessary clearance... AND it will not hurt, in the least, the "blue box" brass... However, in any event turn your necks down to "clean them up" and make sure you do it PRE-Fireforming... Oh and depending on which bullet you shoot, you are better off with a .130+ freebore..
