Just tried seating two bullets whit RCBS gold medal seater die, 30-06.
I measured factory ammo, norma jacktmatch, to 0,334 neck diameter.
I used 0,333 bushing. The bullet was so loose I could, with some effort, pull the bullet out by hand.
I then tried a 0,332 bushing. I still pulled the bullet by hand.
This is once fired brass, neck has not been turned.
I got 0,334 neck diameter with both bushings.
Am I doing something wrong? Or do I need a smaller bushing?
