Hornady Neck Turn Tool or pma neck turner

[Schw15]

Has anyone used the Hornady neck turner tool? Opinions? Good results? I really like the easy and setup. But also seems like the pma tool is great options as well. I need to neck turn because neck is to tight for the thicker brass. Not sure which route....... last time I just changed everything instead of neck turning but now I can't get away from it. Not a huge fan of adding it never done it before.

I have and like the PMA tool. I have not used the Hornady tool but it looks cheap in comparison. I also have Sinclair and K&M tools and can recommend them.

What do you use for lube? I was thinking hornady dry lube? Instead of oil

I use less than one tiny drop of Shooters Choice FP10. I don't even squeeze the bottle, just what weeps out of the nozzle when I invert the bottle.

If you want to get away from oil Redding Sizing Die Wax would work.

Have that as well. I was thinking the one shot would be easy small spray and go but no experience here

With that you need to use a drill or lathe don't you?

The one that I have is a conventional looking tool. I sure the case with a cordless screwdriver.

Yeah that's is what I'm looking at. Get the drill attachments and run the case with drill and hold the pma tool by hand or figure something out for a holder

I just hold my 21st century cutter in hand, if your not being a magilla gorilla it’s easy to get consistent results.

I prefer the KM set up over hornady. The hornady neck turner just didn’t seem quality to me.

This really works well for me, and it's not as messy as oil. Throw them in a tumbler for 15 minutes to take the residue out of the necks. I anneal after tumbling, before the first sizing.
PMA tool works well for me. Just got done doing 500 cases. Whatever brand you go with, only buy their mandrels so everything stays consistent. Get a good tube mic so you can check for consistency.
