Before resizing used brass it is a good idea to brush inside the case necks with a 7mm nylon or bronze brush. Also if you only resize the neck say half way down compared to full resize your neck tension will differ considerably.
    Resized the virgin brass. But will definitely give the inside of the neck a good clean and make sure I'm resizing consistently, cheers.
