newbie 20BR die question
I just got a Redding full length neck bushing die set (#36666). If I understand it correctly, to form 20BR from 6mmBr brass I can adjust the sizing die (up) so it only neck sizes, right? I may get a neck sizing die in the future. Also it is better to neck size in steps and not to use the expander for any of the steps?
Thanks. |

20BR sizing
Need to say howdee!
I have a 20BR and this what I do: I use a 22BR full length sizing die without the expander. It takes it down to .240, then I use a neck sizing die (22BR) with a .237 bushing, next is a .232 bushing. After all this I trim to length, mine is 1.535. All of the dies I use are Redding and they seem to work well! I think Redding makes 20BR dies, but since I already have a 22BR I was advized that I could use the ones I have. PS. I use Imperial sizing wax on all of these steps! Best to ya and I'm sure you like your 20BR! Jack |

As I said, I have the 20BR dies. I bought the following bushings- .254, .243,
.235, and .231. I'll do the sizing in 4 steps. I just wanted to be sure the expander is not used. |
