[QUOTE="winmagman, post: 34766, member: 1193"] Jerry Those were my thoughts exactly when the rounds didn't fit. When I got home I measure every place I could think of on those 2 rounds and some others that did chamber, everything matched within .002. Runout might be an understatement for what the 2 rounds had, when rolled across the table the difference between the high and low point of the bullet tip was nearly 3/16". The bullet itself had a line (not land marks) about 1/3 of the way around it approx. 1/4" up from the case neck. All I can figure is the bullet itself was catching in the chamber where the case neck ends and the throat starts. That's just a guess though. I seated 25 bullets in empty cases later that night trying to duplicate what went wrong, but it never happened. I look at it this way , upgrading dies certainly can't hurt anything. I hope.
