[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 35092, member: 10"] Lablover, It depends on how hard you run your loads. If your driving them hard, you will more then likely need to at leat partially full length size your case everytime. You should be able to get your cases back in the chamber though, they may be quite tight but they should rechamber. Take a just fired case and see if it will chamber in your rifle. If it will not your running your pressure to high. The bolt should close on a fired case, may be tight but it should close. Sounds like you got ahold of a lazy SOB at RCBS. What is the point of the NS die if you still need to full length size you case afterword. The person you talked to either is not educated enough to help you with your problem or is flat out lazy. One thing to look at is if the fired case WILL chamber in your rifle but a neck sized case WILL NOT chamber, more then likely you are adjusting the die down to far and disrupting the neck of the case and puching it out of dimension from the chamber. When I neck size, I like to size only about 2/3 or the neck. One disadvantage the standard neck sizing dies have is that the case is not supported when the neck is being sized. If the brass is soft and it takes pretty good pressure to size the neck, the neck/shoulder junction will become bulged from the lack of support. The best neck sizing die on the market is the Redding Comp Bushing Neck sizer. It has the sliding sleeve to fully support the body of the brass during the sizing operation, preventing any inadvertant changes in the shoulder and body dimensions. Neck run outs are usually in the 1's with the Redding as well. Good Shooting!!!! Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
