Add 1.3 thou to the OD of a fired neck due to spring back of the brass, 1 thou if its annealed, subtract that from the OD of a loaded neck

Be very careful neck turning/removing material from the OD of brass as the amount you remove will reduce neck tension by the same amount -with standard dies, bushing dies can overcome the effect by going to smaller bushings.

You can create a big inaccurate mess if not fully understood first or necessary

I am the master of messes!! Mate knows what its all about so i'll take some brass and see if I need to. Boredom getting the better of me again Better off to just go and shoot stuff!
