[QUOTE="Wizard, post: 549842, member: 5208"] Kind of snippy on this site. My original question was why brass that was fully resized would not fit into my rifle. I am using Redding competition s type bushing dies and thought that they would resize to original size new case dimensions. I only reload for bolt action rifles and have not needed small base dies that some semi-auto rifles require for smooth operation. This is the first time using Lapua brass and I guess I was expecting more from them since they are almost 3 times more expensive than other brass. Using new brass for a go gauge when installing a Savage barrel is a common practice. I am not concerned with SAMMI, only what will work the best for my rifle. My lesson is to only buy new brass which is what I normally do, except when I was competing in pistol shooting or buy a small base die for used brass preparation. I guess "I" caused this by buying high end dies, brass and barrel for my target action and expected more than off the shelf, cheaper products. [/QUOTE]
