[QUOTE="MAD10, post: 1716683, member: 29370"] yes but it also allows you to set your shoulder back from a fired piece of brass for a custom fit in your chamber----just enough so you don't get a case stuck if you get some debris in the chamber ie sand, dust, blade of grass etc. In a bolt guns guys normally use a 2 thou ish bump in auto's and pumps more like 5 thou I myself use Redding competition shell holder set and incrementally use the various thicknesses to reach my shoulder bump. This way once my die is set I only have to place the exact shell holder I previously used to bump the fired brass but of course if you change brass than you have to redo the process. [/QUOTE]
