[QUOTE="abinok, post: 91536, member: 16"] [ QUOTE ] Adjust your FL die a little at a time while checking how the sized case chambers in your rifle. Just when you get the case to chamber easily stop there. you will have about 0.001" clearance which will offer great accuracy but still keep chambering easy. [/ QUOTE ] Just a quick add on to Kirby's excellent posts, on a 7/8x14 die adjusting it down will get you... 1 turn .0714" 1/2 turn .0356" 1/4 turn .0178" 1/8 turn .0089" 1/16 turn .0044" 1/32 turn .0022" 1/64 turn .0011" 1 thousandth is possible... but be very careful in adjusting when you get close... also, be very dilligent in lubing, or uneven lubrication will make it impossible to hold .001 of bump.
