[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2287093, member: 10755"] Totally aware of the issue. However his brass appears to be in spec. The offending chambers are leaving the cases too thick and the die isn’t touching it. I have seen many instances now where a die lengthens the case way too much and then the shoulder doesn’t get bumped, making the case enter the die more fixes the issue. It may or may not help this individual rifle out…but it won’t hurt anything trying it, as altering a shell holder is a last resort. I’ve had to do this on every Weatherby chamber I have cut myself, the match reamers I use are on ‘0’ headspace and the radius shoulder springs back more than conventional shoulders until you get into 45° or steeper. It’s no biggie for me to alter a shell holder. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
