[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 1328543, member: 7"] [I]"Just got my new Redding T7 Turret Press, Competition Dies, and Competition Shell holders for 300 Win Mag. In setting up the dies to get the proper cam over would I use a standard shell holder or the 0.010 competition shell holder?"[/I] The height of shellholders are all the same, so when you screw in the die, and set it up for "Cam-over" it will cam-over with any standard or competition shellholder. Fired cases are not always at max chamber length, so you cannot use fired case length to judge anything. Do NOT set up the press to make the cases 2 thou shorter than a fired case - you will eventually get head separations. To set it up - pick the shell holder that gives you slight resistance wen closing the bolt on a loaded case. [/QUOTE]
