[QUOTE="sj-pratt, post: 812553, member: 6953"] It's more than likely the shoulder than the neck length would be my guess. every time you fire the brass it work hardens a little more. When you size them they spring back and then hit the shoulder when you try to chamber them. A system to measure the shoulder length, like the Hornaday Headspace tool is the only way you will know if your dies are bumping the shoulder back. Some dies even when set to touch the shell holder will not set the shoulder back and that is why, as your brass gets shot more it becomes a little harder to chamber. [/QUOTE]
