I want to turn my case necks on a lathe and am trying to come up with a way to spin the cases true. I think I have a way but would like to hear from someone that does this and how? Thanks!
I turn mine on the lathe and use a new mandrel for each batch. I have shellholders which mount in the tailstock chuck to press on and remove the cases. Case neck turning is still a pain in the tush but it's better than getting blisters for a manual turner! Regards, Bill.
I wrote an article on this very thing and had it published in NBRSA News a few years back.
If I machine the mandrel to the bullet size...won't that expand the neck and then there is like no bullet tension?
Am I on the right track here? And any info I can get about that Lathe would be nice. Thanks!!
