Re: To Turn, or Not To Turn?
How often to turn.
I was stunned late last year when I realized that I needed to re-turn some of my brass. It has/had given me good service life (in the area of 7 or 8 firings), but the rifle was not shooting well, and it started showing pressure signs (tight neck match chamber - loaded rounds are .310 and the chamber is .313 so its snug).
I read something, not sure where, that mentioned a second turning on the brass to eliminate some thickening on the necks. For a 7WSM this should have been predictable to me .... duuuhhhh... given how often the necks need trimming. Anyway, I checked the necks and they had gotten thicker, and not evenly. A quick pass on the turner and they were fine. Rifle is back to shooting fine, and no more pressure issues.
So yes they may need a second or possibly third pass (depending how long the brass provides service) if they thicken up. How frequently is going to be very cartridge dependent.
