[QUOTE="foxc57, post: 648318, member: 12963"] Your full length die may not be set up correctly. When the case enters the die the sides of the case contact the side of the die first. Just like squeezing a tube of tooth paste the brass has to go somewhere and it will flow toward the shoulder lengthening the headspace of the case. Try adjusting it with a cam-over, ie screw the die down until it makes contact with the shellholder, back the ram off and then screw the die down another 1/8 to 1/4 of a turn or as much cam-over as possible. Size a case and try it in your chamber. If the case fits then back the die off to your original position and then keep adjusting the die down in small increments until your bolt handle will close without resistance. [/QUOTE]
