[QUOTE="Limbic, post: 245185, member: 11905"] [b]Re: FL resize case troubles[/b] Update. After going to the range I measured the shoulder as well as the brass at several different areas. Rechambering the brass was difficult if possible at all. Headspace gauge measured at -.004. 0 being standard it measured at 46. RCBS headspace gauge. Just above the belt fired brass measured 2 to 3 thou above factory standards. Neck resize didn't help with inability to chamber I put in the FL resize die and backed it out 1/3 - 1/4 turn. Shaved .002 off of the base and didn't change the headspace much at all. Maybe .001. Chambers fine now but obviously shaving brass of the side of your cartidge isn't all that great.:rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
