[QUOTE="bigedp51, post: 1314181, member: 28965"] Chambers and dies vary in size, example I have a Lee full length .223 die that will bump the shoulder back .009 shorter than a GO gauge with the die making hard contact with the shell holder. This same die will also reduce the case diameter more than my small base dies. I use Redding competition shell holders to set the amount of shoulder bump and still let the press cam over. Cam over eliminates any slop in the press when the die makes hard contact with the shell holder. This in turn gives you more constant shoulder bump and far less variations. [/QUOTE]
