[QUOTE="West Calamus, post: 2046249, member: 110228"] Maybe a little off topic. Don't have a comparator or fancy die set-ups. What is the best way to set belted case resizing die? Here is what I do so tell me if I shouldn't be doing this. Hornaday custom grade dies - case once fired and annealed, run shell holder up until it contacts die at top of stroke then back die off 1/4 turn and size case. Cycle in rifle, if bolt will not lock then slightly screw down die until bolt locks with slight resistance on bottom third of of lock stroke. Sig brass with about 7 firings with a few hot loads during testing and not aware of any signs of case separation. [/QUOTE]
