Hi all, i was just curious if anyone knows of someone or a company that neck custom neck turns brass? I had to size some brass down and would like the necks turned.

Yeah i dont want to invest into as well
I bought the RCBS machine for inside and outside neck turning back when I was into competition shooting. But anyway I had more than 1000 308 win that I converted to 243 win. I've trimmed 1000s upon thousands of cases to length with inside and outside chamfering.
It's a relaxing way to spend an evening. I bought all the cutters and trimmers for all of my calibers.

I have an ancient Forster that can turn either the inside or the outside necks.
I preferred to size my cases so that the ID's where uniform, then to turn down the outside for uniformity.
However, these were just factory cases, not custom cases! A bit tedious, but not overwhelming! memtb

For what someone would likely charge, an IDOD down payment might be made.!?

OP, have you tried the necked down cases? You might not need to turn them only going from 6.5mm to 6mm. I have a few rifles I have necked down, my 6CM being one. I built mine before the 6CM Lapua SRP brass was available, no I necked down 6.5CM to 6CM. No issue with either chambering or neck clearance. And I can say it is plenty accurate.

It's not that expensive. Just get a cutter and case holder and the correct cutter should angle and chuck in a drill. Probably less than 100.00.
Like Lance, not my fav thing to do but it's easy.
Down from 7prc? Do you know the chamber dimensions and how thick you want the neck wall?
