[QUOTE="Vol1975, post: 1735100, member: 100380"] Ok, so I could always could get the bolt to close on the fired brass it was just a little tight. It was just a little tight after the brass was fired more than likely from my darn fault of pushing the pressure to the upper limits. I recognize that even thou I was still showing no ejector marks and slightly primers that were being flattened. Again I only bump thing back just enough for hunting purpose to have the bolt close Very easy. Typically when I’m done my goal when comparing a fire formed brass to the brass piece that I bumped has a reduced measurement of rougly .002 th of difference from the shoulder area and around the belt. Some may be .001 more here or their. I use the proper tools, gauges, mic, etc just like I have done the past 30 years of reloading. Heck I’ve even checked as I do with all my guns with a go and no go gauge. Now as far as neck sizing I’ve done the neck size thing 20 years ago and all it takes during a hunting season is a little crude and u can’t close the darn thing. Thus why I bump thing back Just enough for the bolt to close easy. Finally I take people advice like JE custom very serious. Their is great advice from people on this forum. Nothing beats experience and nothing beats learning from other people mistakes and success. I do appreciate all the comments good and bad from people. People on this site are by far the most helpful people that I’ve seen in my 50 years of hunting and shooting. [/QUOTE]
