[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 967138, member: 12"] Factory die directions could be wrong for several reasons if the die is chambered too deep or too short. If too long it will not allow you to push the shoulder. If too short you will push the shoulder back to the point it flares the body/shoulder junction out and it will not chamber. Measure the brass and adjust from that is correct way! Where is your resized shoulder compared to virgin and once fired brass? What is the body measurement about .250 above the extractor groove on resized versus fired and virgin brass? COAL is the wrong measurement also. You must measure where the ogive is not COAL. You might find your reloaded bullet ogive is out much further and that is your problem. .010 you could not even feel and it certainly would not be enough to stop chambering. [/QUOTE]
