[QUOTE="jimbires, post: 838872, member: 11011"] if this is new brass it can be made fairly small to be sure it will fit any chamber . if it is used brass I'd say you are over sizing it . you need to have a way to measure a fired case then adjust your die so you are only pushing the shoulder back about .002 . even if the chamber is cut on the large side you can adjust your die to properly size the brass . I use a RCBS precision mic for measuring my fired case . I use the redding competition shell holder set to be able to easily adjust my sizing die . Jim [/QUOTE]
