[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 357984, member: 1521"] Doesn't look like bad flatening to me. Nor wiping of the case head.. As far as HS measuring, it is relative to your gun/chamber. So just measure it yourself with calipers and any gizzy that works. Keep records and gizzy with cartridge for the life of the barrel. You can use a piece of brakeline or something else indicating off the shoulder for a gizzy. Or you can forget a gizzy alltogether and use Redding's competition shellholder set for adjustment. Anyway.. Measure a snug bolt turn case, adjust body die to bump it 1/2thou, rechamber with a sense for improved bolt turn. Repeat. Don't go more than 2thou. If needed, remove the firing pin for better testing. [/QUOTE]
