[QUOTE="kraky, post: 546990, member: 180"] FWIW I don't own a wsm but have worked with a few. What I've found is with that if I don't set the shoulder back about .003" when running reloads that match factory velocity there is alot of tension on bolt lift after firing the reload. Enough that I think it would hinder follow up shots. I'll use the lee collet die on once fired brass for testing....but only fl sizing for hunting. I've been told the culprit is the larger shoulder area of wsm brass. May not be a problem for all chambers but it was very noticeable in the couple guns I worked with. The wsm's are kind of a cool casing to look at but also kind of a pain to reload....at least that's what I've found. [/QUOTE]
