Why would a gunsmith change the shoulder of a 338 Lapua ?

[QUOTE="texasdave, post: 287559, member: 1960"] I have a 30-338 Lapua that the smith that built it changed the shoulder to a 38 degree angle on the case. My reason for asking this question is that forces me to fire form all the brass. I have the formula which is 19 g of unique and a 150 g molly bullet. With the shortage of supplies now days I have been looking for a way around fire forming and so far have not found it. My search then brought the question to my mind why was the shoulder changed? Do I really get anything more by doing that? I know I can not change this until the barrel needs to be replaced and I have not seem to have a capacity problem but I am sure there is a good explanation and I was hoping someone could explain it to me. I appreciate your time. Thanks, [/QUOTE]
