[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 659699, member: 29890"] When bullet manufacturers want to test the accuracy of their "bullet" it makes sense to size the whole case, they aren't always load testing, just bullet testing. If you or the gunsmith you use are competent, and use good tooling, setup properly, (no dull reamers, loose pilots, chatter) there should be no inconsistencies in your chamber period, if there are you should pick up on them after a couple firings and fix it. Obviously the reamer cuts evenly as it rotates 160-240 rpms. So as I said, when a round is fired it is molded to your chamber, no need to change the case demensions back until it won't fit at all, I have had weatherby cases that I have loosened the primer pockets in with 8 or 9 loads and never had to move the shoulder. If you want them to chamber easier fl them, neither way is incorrect. Personally I don't like to work harden my brass because I will have to anneal it more often. Everyone has a preference or opinion, no need to start bickering. [/QUOTE]
