[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 1956101, member: 26077"] First off, try a different Factory load in the gun. Hornady ammo being too hot is nothing new. Second, work up your load with new unfired brass and see what you get. Third, belted mag cases don't take well to being full length resized. Fired cases will chamber easily so neck size them and call it good. When you FL size, all that brass you squeeze back down has to go some place. Part of it grows the neck, thus the need for regular triming but some also gets pushed back towards the belt, eventually causing a donut just above the belt that makes the case hard to impossible to chamber unless you get the Larry Willis collet die.[B] [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)][U][URL]http://larrywillis.com/[/URL][/U][/COLOR] [/B] This die works well but it is solving a problem you don't really need to have if you stick to neck sizing and use the brass only in one gun.
