[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1478639, member: 4191"] Were you headspacing off the shoulder of the 300WM cases prior to fire forming with bullets? I only used the lube on COW fire formed cases, and the case length shrinkage was reduced, and the shoulders were completely blown forward for proper headspacing off the shoulder for my next firings with bullets. If you COW fire form, you'll want to set the shoulder of the 300WM case back for a friction crush fit when closing the bolt. Prime, powder charge and compact cream of wheat over the gun powder. Seal the COW in the case neck with some tissue. Then lube the case. If you want to go overkill, also clean and lube the chamber. Boom! Let us know how much case length shrinkage you end up with. Shouldn't be much. What are you using for case lube? [/QUOTE]
