[QUOTE="swampbug, post: 2008005, member: 115992"] You need to have 3-5 reloads before shoulder bumping to allow brass to expand to your chamber. Rely on how hard it is to chamber a round. When you set your die, .002 is generally enough. I like to remove firing pin, and bump back shoulder until bolt just starts to drop (similar to finding seating depth). [/QUOTE]
