Default Bushing die question for the brain trust.

I’m working on putting together a set of 270 Winchester dies. I have an LE Wilson 30-06 FL bushing die. In theory a bushing swap will work. However, there will be a portion of the top of the shoulder that will never come in contact with the die because of the difference in neck diameter between those two cases. Anyone have any thought on whether that will cause issues?

Given that the shoulder is pushed back into the case at the base of the shoulder, rather than at the neck, I think it should work.

That is my thought as well.
