6xc Neck question

Just got my 6xc built and excited!Took a long time goig back and forth between cartridges. Fiannly settled on the XC due to mag length concerns. My smith informed me that his reamer has a .273 neck which he said was snug but not tight. I will be shooting Tubb brass. I really don't want to neck turn. Should I be alright? I guess I'm just looking for reconfirmation. Thanks !
 
The Norma brass I have measured runs right at .269ish loaded. Don't see any issues with your .273nk diameter! Not sure if the brass Tubb sells is any different than what I got from Black Hills Shooters Supply as far as neck thickness??
 
I bought some from Tubb about 6 months ago and a loaded round measures about .2705.
The reamer I used had a .275 neck which I thought sounded a little big but maybe not.
