[QUOTE="Old teacher, post: 860469, member: 48420"] Most of my brass (all Nosler) is on its fifth or sixth loading. Brass cannot flow if it has no place to flow to. The only cases I full length size are my straight wall cases, my 45-70 and my 38-55. I have not full length sized a case for which I have a neck sizing die in recent memory, and I have never had a problem closing a bolt. I have had a problem opening one now and then, but that is a different story and a whole different problem. If I had a case that the bolt would not close on, I would throw it away, because full length sizing would create a case that did not fit the chamber anyway and I wouldn't want to bother wasting a primer, powder charge, and bullet to fire form a case whose life was near the end anyway.
