[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 867615, member: 5302"] I disagree with that premise. Factory chambers are anywhere between SAAMI minum and maximum; typically towards the shorter, minimum end. Cases so sized would not fit in most of them if sized a couple thousandths shorter in shoulder headspace than specs. My RCBS dies size fired cases back to about SAAMI minimum case specs. They're made that way so sized cases in them will easily chamber in all SAAMI spec chambers regardless of which end of the tolerances they're at. SAAMI maximum case specs are smaller than SAAMI minimum chamber specs. Check them out in: [url]http://www.saami.org/PubResources/CC_Drawings/C%20and%20C%20Dwgs%20-%20TOC%20-%20Rifle.pdf[/url] And there's no SAAMI spec for reloading tools; dies included. Die makers choose their own specs and tolerances. [/QUOTE]
