[QUOTE="alf, post: 302826, member: 9543"] CJ, When you set up your full length die, screw it out a turn or so, then bump the brass a bit at a time, screwing the die down till the bolt closes with a hint of resistance. Pull your firing pin assembly out of the bolt for the best feel. I tell guys if you can use your nose to push the bolt down, it's about right.:D That ends up at about 1 to 1 1/2 thou bump. [/QUOTE]
