[QUOTE="kc0pph, post: 550221, member: 35934"] I have a friend with the 7mm and he had the same issue, the bulge looked like a small elongated bubble. I was worried about case head seperation if I loaded them for him. So we did a red nek check on his chamber. We sprayed the chamber with oil (i think it was the spray rem oil) Put a dowel in the barrel and packed the chamber with clay. Then we let it dry, pushed it out with the dowel and saw that there was a part that looked bulged. He sent it back to Remington and im assuming they replaced the barrel. Might try doing this and see if you have an issue with it. I hear that sometimes if it is reamed fast and without care, and backed out while spinning a chip can get caught and roll in the reamer and cause it to chip the chamber. As far as Neck Sizing using a FL die i have never had success with it. Took a 30'06, blackened it with my trusty lighter (outside as i have powder spilled and in the carpet :D ). I raised the ram, then screwed in the die until it touched the case. Removed and saw it started to neck down the 06 to the 270, (using my RockChucker it takes some force to neck down the 06). Using slow adjustments by the time i got it to set the shoulder back the blackened case had been wiped away all the way down. I am using RCBS FL dies. Another lesson i learned the hard way. The expander ball needs to enter the case BEFORE you size the neck, or else you might not be able to get it in. I crushed the Neck trying to force it in. [/QUOTE]
