[QUOTE="bob4, post: 1403851, member: 57171"] I'm sure I'm missing something simple:I decided to try shoulder bumping 300 WM. The instructions say: "[I][B]By removing the neck bushing, the Bushing Bump Neck Sizing Die may be used to bump the shoulder without changing the case neck diameter. This action maintains proper headspace in any chamber, be it custom or factory[/B][/I]." Is this the only way to bump shoulders? I mean is it another process then put the bushing back in for the neck? Every attempt I made to not have the shoulders move yet has them set back another .003. All my once fired cases measure 2.270 (Datum line) They still chamber effortlessly in the rifle. So I'm thinking I don't want to bump them yet. The only thing that has left headspace where it was, was actually backing the die out about 1/2 turn. Now the neck did resize doing this. Just not sure if it's correct /safe. Any guidance sure appreciated. [/QUOTE]
