I ordered the .245 bushing with the die and may have to get a .246 as the .245 seems to give me a .218 finished neck I.D. which works out to a .006 interferemce fit and I was wanting a .004 fit. This was on Hornady brass and I didn't try it on the Winchester brass yet.

I use the same type of die on my 22-250 loads with a .251 bushing for a .004 fit.
Dang bushings are about $8.00 a pop though. But they sure are nice dies.
