[QUOTE="bigedp51, post: 1446059, member: 28965"] You may be bumping the shoulder back when you full length resize the case. Try putting a .020 to .010 feeler gauge between the die and shell holder. This should still squeeze the case body and size the neck but not touch the case shoulder. Or if you have them Redding competition shell holders will do the same thing as the feeler gauges and not have to adjust the die. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/7FfXhJ7.jpg[/IMG] As you can see below you can make a fired case longer than the chamber. "BUT" a new case might not be squeezed enough to make the shoulder move upward in the die. You could try feeler gauges thinner than .010 and see if the shoulder moves.
