[QUOTE="Old Rooster, post: 2186247, member: 108576"] capona I use redding bushing dies on a RCBS Rock Chucker Imperial lube no ball expander and yes I rotate 180 degrees for a second stroke but magnum maniac said he leaves it for several seconds with pressure to get consistent numbers.Unfired R P Brass is impossible to get .002 shoulder set back and once fired R P brass is almost as difficult.I get different shoulder set back numbers and none are consistent..005 .003 .006 are my numbers on the 3 I shot and tried to set the shoulder back .002. I tried the brand new Norma brass I have under my bench and they set back perfectly. I think the new R P brass is so hard that it resists setting the shoulder back.I may re-anneal the R P brass to soften it up a bit. Thanks for your reply as I fought this all night a few nights ago and was at my wits end. Keep the advice coming as you can never have too much information. Thanks Old Rooster [/QUOTE]
