dansig,
That is the same setup I have and I wouldn't trade it for any other setup, you might want to order both case holders, the one for fired case and the one for new case, it comes in handy to have both.
What kind of neck turner were you wanting? I have several brands, I like the NT-4000 from Sinclair but I think I like the PMA better here is there site,...good luck ;)

The 21st Century neck turner with lathe is an excellent turner. Give John at 21st a call and see if he will ship it to you. +1 260-273-9909.
 
so I'll place my order and see if PMA will ship to Iceland, can't wait to see if my groups will get smaller by trimming and neck turning...

If you have a custom chamber you may bennifit but a factory chamber probably not with neck turning, Neck trimming is nesessary in all chambers,..Pat is a nice guy, I think you will like his turner, I hope he will send you one, If not John at 21st century is a really great guy to deal with also as Charlie stated, I own both and like the PMA better but once setup the 21st does a real smooth job, my only real complaint with it is it has a lot of back lash in the micro wheel,..very frustrating for me but there is hardly no backlash if any in the PMA, best wishes to you.

I second Charlie's recommendation for the 21st Century Neck Turner. I have used a number of different neck turners and 21st is not only easier to use but produces a superior result over them all. It is novel in that both the mandrel and the tail stock ends are free floating, allowing them to self center for a perfectly concentric cut. Salazar did a favorable review on this site at:

Here's a link to the lathe on the 21st Century site and John WILL ship to Iceland!

308ocd,
I agree with you on Johns turner but I don't like the back lash in the micro wheel, I tore it down to see if it could have the slack removed but I couldn't see any way, have you been able to tighten it up? if I am moving it in and want to back it out .0004 you have to go backwards until the slop is gone but of course then that isn't really precision, any incite on it? would appreciate any suggestions you may have.
Wayne.
