[QUOTE="DZelenka, post: 475532, member: 20543"] I have an RCBS Precision Mic and measure several cases fired in my rifle and adjust the sizing die to push the shoulder back about .003" Caution: different brands of brass may need different adjustments because the alloys have different amounts of "spring" to them. Primers: I use primers with a hard cup like CCIs and 7 1/2 Remingtons or Wolf SR Mag or Wolf .223 primers. With most powders you don't need mag primers (the exception has been ball and N540). Wolf SR mag primers differ from their standard sr primer only in cup hardness so I put them in the non-mag category. The only primer that I will not use is the gold colored Winchester WSRs. There have been way too many reports of pierced primers with moderate loads. Don't forget that you have to take the crimp out of the primer pocket on the LC brass. The best pocket swager is the Dillon. [/QUOTE]
