Fellas, i need some suggestions. I chambered my first barrel today with a new 22ppc reamer. The neck on this reamer is .243. What do i need to turn the brass neck thickness to for a .243 neck? .0085???? is that about right?? Thanks Lee
 
Or a bit thinner, depending on the pressure ring diameter of your bullet...Depends on the clearance that you are shooting for. Someone once told me a story that indicated that for .22s especially, they need enough clearance for a clean release. I Would try for a little over .002 over the pressure ring.
 
Skeet, forget the steenking math, stick a bullet in there. Turn them so your loaded round equals .241, or whatever you want.....

Yes forget the math throw away the cases after a few reloadings'
Work the brass a few times and throw it away , after all of that work getting them perfect.
That keep the brass suppliers busy making new cases for you.
