[QUOTE="birddog 68, post: 2863560, member: 121617"] As others mentioned previously you really don’t need to bump the shoulder back after the first firing and more than likely the second either. I don’t bump the shoulder back until it’s difficult to close the bolt and then I measure that piece of brass and bump it back .002 from there. Sounds like you are bumping the shoulder back when it doesn’t need it yet. CBTO is measured after a bullet is seated. [/QUOTE]
