I just ordered a .270 Win. bolt gun and it will be the first bottleneck cartridge I'll handload. I'm about a year into reloading and have been getting the hang of straight-wall handgun and rifle okay so far. I'll probably pick up the new dies soon and will dip back into the books before I start, but I wanted some THR input as to what the big differences will be and what extra equipment I should get. For instance, is inside-the-neck lubrication with that mica stuff always necessary or just preferable? Do I need a neck turner? What other quirks in the world of bottlenecks should I be aware of?
Thanks. Ed
