I decided i wanted to try and make a set of form dies to make 22-250 brass that has thicker necks becuase my chamber seems to have about .010 slop over the dimension of a loaded round. Figuring id have to neck turn anyway and still have thicker necks i thought about just starting and sizing down all the way from 308 win brass. So what im thinking of doing is getting an extra set fo 22-250 dies and possible 250 savage dies. I already have 300 savage dies. I was thinking of opening up the necks of a neck die and a seater die to use as forming dies. Any recomendation on doing this? Im not sure how hard dies are, so i was thinking of either trying to use a carbide reamer from evilbay on them or temper them in the oven at about 400f for an hour. I probably have an adjustable hand reamer, and maybe a few other reamers in my stuff. I dont have any boring equip for lathe.
I appreciate any input.
