[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1246000, member: 48043"] I've given up on partial fl sizing like you were doing because of fitment issues like you have been having and accuracy issues that I had in one particularly long chamber. My last 7stw was punched 15 thou. deeper than it needed to be... tried partial fl sizing for it and had so many accuracy issues that I went back to true fl sizing. Then my brass life went to three firings because of the stretch. I eventually had the barrel turned back; the 'smith wouldn't put it back together though as some dolt didn't measure correctly. I have oversized receiver threads on this rifle (worked over rem700) and they shoved a standard shank pre-fit on the rifle, then ditched it on trade. Long story short, the new bbl. was cut with proper dimensions by a local 'smith and she shoots great and doesn't eat brass as quickly. [/QUOTE]
