I have just had a 20 PPC barrel done for my Sako S491 22PPC and have only 60 new 220 Russian cases when loaded are .235 neck, I have some once fired 22 Beggs [almost a 22 Russian] Lap cases that have been turned when loaded are .230 neck.
A fired neck turned case come out of the gun at .236 is it going to make any difference to the rabbits I intend to shoot?
I have neck bushes to accommodate loading both cases with .002" neck tension.
44deg here right now so have no intention going out to shoot it to find out.
Cheers

Re: Neck clearance
If it dose not bother you changing the bush over to load it won't make any difference!

Re: Neck clearance
The rabbits will have zero clue. If you want to print bug holes on paper read the experiments from a warehouse. Marcus posted some links to the articles not too long ago

Re: Neck clearance
I haven't had any accuracy issues with more neck clearance, you can have issues with a to tight a neck though.

Re: Neck clearance
Us Rabbitz would need to be standing pretty close to see a difference of .005". Might even need to put on some specs.
