28 nosler redding neck die shaving brass.

[jacobdewey]

Neck die is shaving my case necks. I cleaned the die and brass, chamfered the necks and generously lubed them. This is not a bushing style die. I tried ADG brass as well as the Hornady. Did it to both. What am I doing wrong?

My FL die doesn't do this.

I don't see any chamfer on that neck.

Try more.

That's because it cut it off. I don't chamfer as aggressively as what you posted.

I'll try that.

You mean machine where it meets the shoulder on the die?

Have you always outside chamfered this way?

Contact Redding. Something seems wrong about the die.

I just debur the outside and chamfer the inside. But I don't use neck dies.

I do. I have my 3-way cutters set up like this.

I've always figured that an aggressive chamfer like this would hinder necks sealing. I usually just de-burr for the most part.
