[QUOTE="jaggerz, post: 1440647, member: 72209"] I’m having trouble with my loaded shells being too tight to chamber. Gun is a savage 112 target. Cases are federal and die is rcbs neck sizer. The only things I’ve checked so far are: Neck sized but empty cases chamber and extract easily. Necks measure .370 unsized and .365 after running them thru the die. .366 loaded with smk. I chambered and shot 2 shells today. They were overly snug going in but the bolt closed without too much effort. Well the 2nd one wouldn’t extract. I was able to get the bolt open with considerable effort but had to knock the case out with a cleaning rod. Bullets are seated .02 off the lands and the trim length is within tolerance. Is there something simple I’m overlooking? Should I skip the neck sizer and full length size instead? I’m at a loss here. Need someone to tell me where I’m going wrong. [/QUOTE]
