PMA Tool
PMA Model A Neck Turning Tool Non Standard Cutter Angle
- SKU:
- PNT-105
Description
The PMA Neck Turning Tool is the best neck turner available today. You know why you need or want to neck turn, but with so many different models on the market, which do you choose? The factors determining your choice of neck turning tools essentially boils down to three key demands; ease and repeatability of adjustment, comfort of use and cut finish. This tool absolutely satisfies these demands.
Our neck turning tool does not use a course or fine drive screw to move the cutter towards or away from the mandrel. We don’t utilize an unnecessary micrometer or dial indicator. Nor do we rotate the mandrel on an eccentric which changes the center of the cut and has inconsistent adjustment. Our Model A neck turning tool simply adjusts by moving the mandrel toward or away from the stationary cutter with VERY minimal backlash. The Model A utilizes a super-fine 80TPI drive screw giving you .0002” adjustment between each mark, the marks have ample space between them allowing you to make adjustments as fine as .0001”. Tool does not include mandrel.

Works great
Works great and very consistent, got everything to turn necks on 6mm BRA alpha brass turned within 2 ten thousandths. Very pleased with everything I got from PMA

Best I have used
I got one of these because a close friend of mine I shoot 1000yd benchrest with has a few of them and loves them. Ive tried the 21st century which is ok but this far exceeds the 21st century turner. There is a lot less lash in the micrometer of the PMA. I also like that the micrometer moves the mandrel while the cutter is locked in place rather than moving the cutter. Am going to buy a second one with a 30° cutter next.

PMA neck turning tool
Extremely well made. Very happy with the results of sizing my 30-06 to 25-06 brass and then turning with this tool. Very easy to adjust and very precise. Can't ask for anything more. Would definitely recommend.

awesome
You guys are awesome. Your products are the intersection of simplicity, functionality, quality, and art. I had a cheaper neck turner before I decided to spend the coin on yours. The PMA is not even the most expensive setup by the time you put together all the add ons to bring a competitor "close". Absolutely no regrets and the only money that was wasted was what I spent on the cheap stuff first. Your carbide options are worth every penny too. Your stuff just simply does what it is supposed to do without being overly complicated.

Neck Turning Tool
I currently own 3 of these neck turning tools. I have tried and used all the others at one time or another. I have since sold all the others and will continue to buy this one. The first time I used this tool was to turn 6PPC brass to a 262. I did this on a single pass hogging material off! I then checked my measurements on a ball mic and was shocked to see that it cut uniformly and to the correct thickness for all 100 pieces. So no more making 2 cuts for me. After that I was sold. I also use the PMA carbide mandrels and expanders.

Simple to set up, accurate changes in dimension, repeatable results
As we all know, case neck uniformity helps in accuracy. We can buy premium cases and live with it or turn the necks to get uniformity. Using the PMA tool I get clean smooth turns with little friction, easy predictable adjustments that let me ease into the precise neck thickness required for a specific chamber and the settings hold over hundreds of necks.(Yes, I am a little crazy)
