Neck bushing sizes

I recently put together a 6x47 Lapua and am using a .268 bushing. At the same time that I bought that bushing I also bought a .267 bushing.
I am now building a 6BR. Both catridges have a neck diameter of .270 with a bullet seated. So should I get another .268 bushing for the 6BR or use the
.267 that I have already? Is there any advantage or disadvantage to having an extra thou of neck tension?

Use the bushing that you have.Neck tension isn't the magical trick you often read about and 0.003 is a great place to start.
