[QUOTE="Window, post: 2596450, member: 88485"] I would say yes. If you bump the shoulder.002 and it won’t chamber, the small area in front of the belt is the cause and the Larry Willis collet die will solve that. You can crank your sizing die way down to get it to chamber but you’ll be bumping your shoulder back way too far and will risk case head separation. I’ve never had a case head separation but I’ve had a few over the years that wouldn’t chamber because of what your mentioning and I just set those aside and move on. I load for a ton of Weatherby’s and some chambers cause this more than others because on chamber dimensions. So to answer your question, bump the shoulders .002-.003 at most and if you have an excessive number of brass that won’t chamber, purchase a Larry Willis collet die and solve the problem. The consistency and your group size will that you and your brass should last for many loads. [/QUOTE]
