[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 1299911, member: 77249"] Have you tried the cases in the rifle chamber after the neck sizing? Does the case chambers easy before bullet seating? You have to be very careful adjusting the seating die. Be sure the case neck does not hit the crimping ring in the die. Make sure the bullet is seating smooth. The steep shoulder angle and large case diameter makes swelling the case at the shoulder junction very easy. A friend had a similar problem we traced it to the case neck bumping the crimp ring and was swelling the case at the junction of the shoulder and the straight case body. By backing the seating die back about .050 and readjusting the seating stem to O.A.C.L. the problem disappeared. Good Luck in finding the problem and a cure. [/QUOTE]
