[QUOTE="PddPdd, post: 2395817, member: 111799"] After sizing with your current die setting, how does the brass fit your chamber? Any bolt closing resistance? If yes, I agree with screwing the die down slightly to get .001-.002" back so that it will chamber smoothly after sizing. Note: If you attempt to resize the same piece of brass twice to reduce your headspace the die setting could be different then if you did it in one step. You'll want to set your dies to do it in one step and deal with those that didn't shorten enough by annealing them and then sizing again. Hope that makes sense. BTW, the bushing die size lettering should be up when the die is installed in your press. [/QUOTE]
