Necking up and accuracy?

[yogibearmech]

So wi shortage of components I stumbled across some Norma brass that is .264 and am thinking of buying it and necking up to .284. I have done in the past but not with bench rest prep for precision. Anyone have experience with this? Will I be messing up doing it

28 Nosler

The 26, 28 and 30 Noslers are all based on the 300 RUM case. They are all slightly diff in length however. Check case dimensions before you resize to make sure it will work well.

26 and 28 Nosler is the same case. Many of people including myself have necked up 26 Nosler. Your necks will be a little over worked but anneal and you'll be fine. 30 Nosler has a shorter body and is not the same case

That's what I am was thinking. Figured someone here had already done it. I just got an annealer machine for Christmas so I can put it to use!

Be careful of donuts if seating below neck- shoulder junction, in most cases necking up you get them.
