[QUOTE="Clem Bronkoski, post: 2144155, member: 110518"] I've reloaded 270 Win for a long time and never had any trouble. Did you size all the brass before loading? If so, the first thing I would do is pull one of the bullets from your reloads and dump the powder and see if it chambers. If it doesn't check your sizing die set up. With the ram all the way up screw the die into the press until it contacts the shell holder then lower the ram and turn the die in another 1/4 turn and lock in place. Run the case into the sizing die slowly and push out the live primer (or you can put a drop of oil in the case to kill the primer but this will also kill any other primers or powder if its not removed). One resized try chambering the case. If this still doesn't chamber you may need to buy a small base sizing die. If the case chambers then it is likely your bullet seating depth. [/QUOTE]
