[QUOTE="JD Jones, post: 2395767, member: 120849"] I am currently starting the process of resizing my first ever batch of 1x brass (newb question) I have a Redding S full length that I have removed the decaping pin and shaft. Cases are deprimed in previous step. I have inserted my bushing, placed the little black piece on top then capped the die. The bushing has just a little wiggle/rattle. The die is on a co ax. Die was set up by actuating the ram fully, screwing the die to shell holder contact, then backing off ~.25 turn. I took initial measurements on the fired brass of 1.607 case length and .529 at the case web After running through die. I get 1.609 case length and case web was unchanged. I expected case length to go the other way….Am I fubar somewhere or is this normal? Brass is ADG cartridge is 6.5 PRC. Note: different lot but ADG brass brand new: 1.608 case length and .528 case web [/QUOTE]
