So you have decapper pin removed how do you determine which bushing to use along with mandrel die diameter?

I dont remove the decapper pin. Here is my procedure: (for hunting rifles) I take a case that has been fireformed at least 2x. I put the stoney point (now Hornady) tool on my calibers and measure the headspace. I screw the sizing die enough to bump the shoulders back about . .003 (when the brass gets used a lot, you will have to lower the sizing die a tad because of spring back). I then lube and resize the case and push the primer out at the same time. If you plan on using a neck turner (and insist on using mixed brass): you can use the same resizing bushing. Measure the thinnest neck, set your neck turner to where it almost cleans up all the way around, (There is a variation in neck thickness even in the best brass. ) Then when you turn your thickest brass, it will take more off but they will all be the same and that bushing will work for all cases. Shoot me a PM and I will give you my email
