    I’ll tell you what brother, nothing like having to turn up the volume all the way on the tv cause I’m eating chips. Then forgetting about the volume. Race cars came on.

    Why do you use the expander mandrel first before you size the neck with the bushing die? I thought my neck tension was a little tight after neck sizing (could not find any larger bushing nowadays). So I used the expander after neck sizing , they seem to seat nicely, smooth and constantly. I really have no specifics to to justify either way, just asking! Love your videos , always learning. 6mm CM is such fun to shoot, but worried about barrel life ,I’m think I’m going to have so much fun with this rifle that the barrel is going to be history sooner than I want. 😂

    Hey Logan, good stuff. Curious about the scale you have? Checked the link and it has 0.005 gram resolution. Does it give you tenths of a grain?

    • @WestDesertShooter
      @WestDesertShooter  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mine does not but the exact scale I have is no longer available. Mine is very accurate and repeatable, it’s been a great little scale.

    Thanks for sharing. Very nice setup.
    Question. Have you ever necked down 6.5 Credmoor to 6mm Credmoor. What is involved in that setup?
    Reason for question. I have hundreds of 6.5 brass and just starting to shoot 6mm.
    Thanks.

    • @WestDesertShooter
      @WestDesertShooter  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You can get a mandrel from Sinclair that will size the neck to your exactly what you want. It's more accurate from the inside rather than the outside like a bushing does.
