I have a new 22-250, and will be using a Redding type "S" sizing die. Lapua brass. Any ballpark recommendations for bushing sizes?

As soon as the brass arrives, I'll measure the neck walls, of course. I'm just being neurotic, and OCD, but you all already know that.

Brass thickness being so variable, might be best to wait until you get yours, and make a decision after you measure it.

Yes^^^^, seat a bullet into your new brass, measure and go 1 to 3 thousandths less depending on how much neck tension you like. I'll usually go 1 thou less for smaller cartridges and 2 thousandths less than loaded measurement for the bigger hunting cartridges.

Just my opinion... but I like it!
