[QUOTE="fguffey, post: 1870256, member: 113511"] If brass shrinks after firing or after sizing or when I am not watching it there is nothing I can do about it. I have never spent more than a few seconds thinking about it. I have trouble convincing reloaders they should measure before and again after; like before firing and again after firing and before sizing and again after sizing. If brass pops back and in doing so made a sound there is a remote chance I would be curious. And then one day I read on a reloading forum that brass, after sizing recovers length, diameter etc. etc. for 5 days. And then I had one of those moments when I reflected back to my Ol Grandpa, he did not get excited about anything, one day he told me he would not walk across a street to watch an ant eat a bail of hay; and we had a good laugh.
