Case neck is less than one caliber blah , blah, blah. Leads to all kinds of issues, blah, blah , blah. Bullet may intrude into powder space, blah, blah, blah. Simple sloutions for all the supposed horrofic things it supposedly causes. Make sure the ogive of the bullet is outside of the case neck by bullet choice and seating depth. Also make sure your expander ball is of the correct diameter . You can always sand it down a bit for more neck tension. The bullet intruding into the powder space also is a non issue. If it bothers you use a flat base. If you want to use a boat tail or long monolithic bullet it doesn't make much difference. By the 4 to 1 rule of powder difference in the same case even if you take 5% of the available powder room it is only going to lower your velocity 1.25 %. The extra throat wear is real. However, it only makes a 5-10% difference in barrel life. If you can afford to wear out a barel you can afford a replacement. My experiance is with the 300 Savage and friends that have 300 Winchesters and a couple of 284 derived wildcats. None of us has ever had any short neck issues.
