[QUOTE="Rflshootr, post: 2607368, member: 10284"] Sounds like you have pretty heavy neck tension. I run .002 and no more than .003 max. The expander size that you picked sounds good. That should help your issue. While you're at it, I'd also measure the expander in the sizing die. It's probably undersize. Should be about .001-.002 under bullet diameter. If it is undersize, any reputable die manufacturer will replace it if you give them a call. Things still don't look right to me in the picture. Maybe it's just a bad picture. I see a step at the neck/shoulder junction, where there should be a .151 radius, what looks to be a deformed shoulder, and circumferential scratches toward the top of the body. Again, maybe it's just the picture. [/QUOTE]
