[QUOTE="bigedp51, post: 1356437, member: 28965"] If the OP had a Hornady cartridge case headspace gauge he wouldn't be having this problem. The OP would know his fired length and be able to adjust his die for the proper shoulder bump. The OP stated he is using brass fired in a different rifle and his full length resized cases did not fit "his" chamber. Meaning he is dealing with brass spring back and need to push the shoulder back further. Below measuring a "fired" 5.56 Lake City case and then my die is setup for .003 shoulder bump for my AR15.
