[QUOTE="Lenny Foffa, post: 2611605, member: 100742"] I often purchase Once fired Weatherby Brass, In Weatherby Boxes, In Both 270 Weatherby Mag and In 300 Weatherby Mag. I run all Brass though the resizing and DE priming RCBS die.. Then clean every case, then I go get the correct rifle, and Chamber each round to see if the bolt will close with Light to medium force . Cases that will not allow the bolt to close easily , go back to the resizing die with a 1/4 turn added. Clean the brass and rechamber again. I am sure this is a primitive way of sizing and there are probably much more exact ways to accomplish this, but this is as far as my reloading experience has taken me , thus far. It seems to work well. I am aware that in doing this I may be pushing the radius shoulder back too far, in an attempt to size the belt aera, but it will be for one firing only. Once all the cases work, and have been fired in my rifle, the die is readjusted back to its original setting. These 270 Weatherby Mag rounds will prepped , separated by weight , and added to the plastic boxes depending on their weight range, and be fired in my 270 Weatherby mag rifle only!! That will be their new home until its time to toss them. [/QUOTE]
