[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2857944, member: 115658"] Yes, crush fit for initial fire forming. Should excessive effort to close bolt be needed or bolt unable to close o new brass a shell holder can be ground down to increase F/L sizing to enable rounds to be chambered. I have a 6mm AI that needed more than usual F/L sizing to accept new brass, so I ground down the top of a shell holder to squash brass more & keep in that shell holder in the 6mm AI die box. Everything has worked out fine for the last 500 rounds or so. The Ackley [S]Ackerly[/S] type cartridges are worthy & provide small to moderate case capacity increase but reduce case stretching and possibly throat erosion. [/QUOTE]
