[QUOTE="fmuguira, post: 2287304, member: 27974"] Simple things to try: First do some measurements are previously mentioned. New, fired and sized cases. See if you can CAM over your press a little more. Often that last little bit will move the shoulder back Consider taking die to someone with a lathe and turn .005, maybe .010 off the bottom. If none of these are things you want to do there’s the custom die route… spendy though. I personally wouldn’t mess with running reamer in further unless it was an absolute last resort. I believe the above suggestions will get you there. It is interesting that once fired brass is tight… I typically shoot new brass and neck size only for 2-3 firings before my bolt gets sticky. Good Luck! [/QUOTE]
