[QUOTE="PapaChunk, post: 592112, member: 40447"] .308 Win twice fired winchester brass Shiny ring around case head. Brass fired from my rifle measure 1.625" before resizing. My sizing die was pushing the shoulder back roughly .010" to 1.616". Normally I like to bump the shoulder back only .003"-.002" to avoid over stretching the brass. New winchester brass was measuring 1.616" This was what I was really wanting to know. So you are saying that difference in headspace will not affect my point of impact. Thanks for the replies.
