[QUOTE="Moman, post: 378831, member: 10494"] Ovastafford, if you haven't already, I would invest a minimal amount in a decent tool that will let you measure your headspace on the shoulder. With this setup, you can minimally size your shoulders back about .001-.002 and just treat them as any other bottle neck case. If you push the shoulders on these back too far you will most likely end up with case head seperation. One other area to keep an eye on is the case body just in front of the belt. Record this measurement on once fired brass, as well as brass that has been fired a few times and make sure it doesn't grow. Sometimes it will grow a little and become to large to fit in your chamber. My FL die resizes this area of the body .001 and have never had a problem with them chambering. Just the way I do it.
