I have about 800 rounds of .308 cases to resize to 7mm-08. I have done 150 federal cases so far. I am having problems with my loaded rounds chambering in my Savage 116, they work but the bolt is tight . I measured the neck diameter of some finished rounds and they are .005 larger than a round of 7mm-08 brass, either a reloaded one or factory ammo. So neck turning seems to be in my future. I have adjusted my dies and do not have case lengths to long so as to have a shoulder that needs to be bumped back more. Using full length Redding and RCBS dies. I am looking at the Hornady case neck turning tool and Forrester attachment for their case neck trimmer. Will either of these do the job for me ? I am not a "long range" guy and use my rifles for hunting. Most of my shots are 300 yds or less with 90% probably 200 or less. I guess I am saying that I just need my brass to work well for hunting purposes, not chasing bench rest world records .
