[QUOTE="LongShot73, post: 758938, member: 54732"] I made slight progress this evening. I took it apart and it all looks good. There is some marks on the mandrel which makes me think it was binding up. I lubed it with a small amount of the Lee resizing lube that I had handy and ran my brass through again. I'm now showing a neck size of .283 to .2385. I did watch that video several times and still believe I have the die set correctly. The die moves up fine with no case inserted and not that well once I put my case in. This is federal brass I'm currently using so I grabbed some Remington off the shelf and still had the same issue. I think i should polish the mandrel and try it again sine this stuff is hunting ammo and will no doubt get tossed round a bit I don't think this is tight enough. Thank you guys for all the great advice. Does it sound like I'm heading in the right direction to you? Whats the best way to polish it. Thanks [/QUOTE]
