Another Reloading thread

[scaggly]

Its perfectly normal to neck size and I cant see how its dangerious? If the round is out of spec on the shoulder too far you wont be able to close the bolt, so it cant be dangerious. I bought some wilson gauges and I check the re-sized case with these, if they are OK I fill them. If not I full resize though my shopping list has a shoulder bump die on it.

You are correct on not firing someone elses neck sized ammo, its not for your gun.

Let me re-phrase it since I'm not being very clear.

No way in hell would I fire any neck-sized ammo in a gas gun! I don't care if it has been neck-sized for my chamber, in my opinion neck-sizing is asking for stuck cases in chambers at best, and a potential kaboom at worst.

Neck-sizing is normal for bolt guns, NOT gas guns. I've never seen a single reloading manual recommend neck-sizing for semi autos, they all recommend against it as dangerous as far as I am aware.

We're playing with explosives, and setting them off by our faces. A little bit of caution is warranted. FFS, I'm a lazy bastard at the best of times, and lubing and tumbling brass is a pain, but I see absolutely no point in taking stupid chances just to save a few minutes.
