[QUOTE="kimba, post: 1077213, member: 85888"] good god this is beyond a dumb post and not because of the original question which is dumb enough. Another person reloading through guessing and not even checking the basics. Now I don't want to go on a rant here but COME ON MAN! Use the tools available to measure your fired cases to your resized and use a damned bump guage. Also measure seating depth for your bullet with the chamber - who knows how well the chamber was cut and to what tolerances and throat length. Measure, do not guess. This is not hard stuff to do and soo many folks just are too lazy or cheap to get the right tools. This is very important in an ar as most folks want them reliable. Many builders- err parts assemblers- have no real clue how to properly build one or even use a properly headspaced bolt for the barrel. Sorry if this is a bit harsh, but the first thing you always do before reloading is make sure proper headspacing and determine where each bullet you reload for hits the lans of your particular chamber. Without doing that, reloading is a guessing game. [/QUOTE]
