[QUOTE="uncleB, post: 243461, member: 4679"] I can tell you exactly what the problem is because I had the same thing happen with my 338Lapua Mag Imp. Your sizing die is not sizing the web area of your cases enough, the only reason it is happening on your Norma cases first is because they are softer than the Lapua cases but sooner or later it will happen to the Lapua cases too. The solution to this problem that I found was to have a custom reamer made and have my barrel cut off and re-chambered, if you dont want to go this extreme try a different sizing die that may size down the web area a bit more.
