[QUOTE="toddlouis, post: 2175384, member: 111109"] Hey all. I can post pictures if needed. I bought a 7saum off a member here, and it’s new unfired but the bolt will not close. i did noticed when I closed a sized only brass that the necks would get pinched down a little bit about 1/4th of the neck down. So I got a neck turner and turned 1/1000th until it closed in the chamber without any resistance, then I trimmed to book length. Seated a bullet to book length and it still won’t close. I’ve tried multiple passes at different neck turning, and bullet seating depth (its built on a long action) I don’t want to keep shaving my 7saum brass as it was expensive and hard to source. is the issue a head spacing? Or could it not have been cut deep enough, as it was supposed to be a saami reamer. Or should I just send it to a gunsmith to get the issue figured. [/QUOTE]
