[QUOTE="Mach 1, post: 1405341, member: 104202"] The video changed nothing for me. I will still neck size my bench guns till the end of my days. A lot of people use cheap hornady brass that don't shoot as much as the video guy. Hornady brass neck sized will last twice as long as a fl sized brass. Even on expensive lapua and norma brass which I use I get more firings. If u trim your brass after every firing like I do you will almost always trim more brass off your case when fl sizing. This extra trimmed off brass is coming primarily out of the headspace region of your case. So the brass can't last as long being fl sized. I can see where firing multiple rounds in quick fashion you don't want to mess with the possibility of cycling problems. I also know alot of comp. Shooters push velocity and pressure limits to ring out the best bc they can get. On my 300 win mag I get 12 loads before fl sizing the brass again, granted it's a belted case but even my 300 wsm I get 8 firings before fl sizing. I think everyone can agree that a fl sized piece of brass expands more than than a neck sized piece of fireformed brass inside a chamber. If consistency is accuracy what is more consistent? A case that expands more or less? Why does everyone like using the same lot numbers on bullets and brass? Because its perceived to be more consistent than mismatching lot numbers.
