[QUOTE="blazerman91, post: 602814, member: 40349"] I headspaced to the brass I'm using, which made my chamber a little tighter than the ackley go gauge. The reason I created the false shoulder was when I tried fire forming with a bullet I was having occasional failure to fires because the contact area between the un-formed case shoulder neck junction and the chamber is very small and the primer strike was moving the case forward. (even though the bullet was jammed in the rifling) The false shoulder was to make sure the case wouldn't move anywhere. I don't claim fire forming without a bullet is the best way to do it. I thought it was a cool idea and wanted to try it for myself. [/QUOTE]
