I have two boxes of Winchester Western Unprimed Cases in 250 Savage. Both are headstamped as "Super Speed 250 SAV". One box has an neck ID of .250". The second full box has an ID of .222". Is this a fluke? Can I safely run the small-necked cases through my single press? I am pretty new to reloading.

Somebody apparently necked the one box of cases down to make .22-250's. You should be able to neck them back up by just running them into a .250 die, but you might want to anneal the necks so they don't crack.

agreed...sure sounds like a likely scenario on the smaller ID.
