[QUOTE="LRHWAL, post: 386051, member: 5418"] Jinx, wow. Mine are not nearly as visible (?bad) as that - both in 270 and 300 WM. Also, my collett fingers close very close together around the case. I'm guessing maybe slightly thicker brass affects this? I do take the die apart when I get it and smooth off any burrs on the collett fingers and slightly smooth the edges that contact the fingers with fine waterpaper. I suppose that may help too. I also do lube with the Redding dry lube applied with the little ceramic balls. I've so far loaded my 300WM cases (WW) 11 times with all neck sizing done with the Lee and shoulder moved with a body die. I annealled at 6 reloads and then at 10. [/QUOTE]
