[QUOTE="cajun, post: 1847542, member: 9772"] Normally you would measure a loaded round at the neck and subtract .002. This can be a problem if you dont have standard dies to load a dummy round. You can measure your your brass neck then add the bullet diameter. However to measure accurately you need a ball micrometer. So if your brass was .014 at the neck that would be .014+.014 +.264= .292. In that case you would need a .290 bushing for .002 “ neck tension”. [/QUOTE]
