[QUOTE="Philward, post: 2595431, member: 92604"] No on some, but they were shot with a hot load. They are also 5+ years old and been reloaded 3+ times. Checked dimensions everywhere and compared to the once fired ones that close in rifle no real difference. 2.118 to datum line for once fired and 2.120 for the older ones but when I sized them to 2.117 they still won't close in chamber without stiff resistance. Case head diameter is 3.5 thou bigger than new cases but above the belt is the same for once fired and the multiple fired ones. They are trimmed to 2.536 so not too long, once fired ones are unsized yet and 2.541 and they close in gun just fine. [/QUOTE]
