    I am currently building a 243ai and am ordering dies but don't know which set of neck bushing to buy for the redding neck bushing dies. I will be using 243 lapua brass with either 105 amax or 107 sierra's.

    <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: 7mmRM</div><div class="ubbcode-body">.270 or .271 </div></div>

    This is spot on for Lapua. I would use the 270 for moly and 271 for nekid. Mine measure .273 for Lapua brass and moly 105 AMAX. These are unturned, new brass.

    measure your Loaded round and then start a couple thow less then get another bushing to see if it likes less tension
