[QUOTE="Kevin Thomas, post: 475508, member: 15748"] CRNA, Just a heads up here, but that 1/8th turn of the die equates to about .009" movement of the shoulder. Little bit of die adjustment goes a long, long way here. That .009" can go from a very tight crush fit, to an excessive headspace situation in just one stroke. Try 1/16th of a turn (or less), and go slowly here. Better yet, check into a set of bump gages so you can accurately see and measure what's going on in the die when you make such an adjustment.
