Regardless of whether it's a PPC or another cartridge, here is a list of case preparations steps, with great pictures, that will serve you well whether it be in the short range or long range accuracy game: http://www.6mmbr.com/jgcaseprep.html. A discussion of neck turning is included. Art

Just My Opinion

I am probably committing "Benchrest Heresy", but I think that some of what Mr Jackson wrote in that article is a waste of time. Especially all of that boring out the ID's of necks, and multiple turnings, etc.

I see shooters all of the time spending all of that effort on necks, and their dies won't even produce rounds that run within .002. Go figure.....jackie

For another angle, read (if you haven't already) the article about Ted Broughton beginning on page 78. I'll only quote a short section, "You must have a good case to start with . . . the entire case . . . you can't make a bad one good by merely improving one part of it."
