[QUOTE="Johnboy, post: 617236, member: 20409"] if your brass is the right length for the chamber then you are haveing a headspace issue.you still need to push the shoulder back a little but not much.it only takes .002 to bump the shoulder back. I guess you haven't bought a headspace tool yet.well don't sweet it.you are already on the right track with setting up your die.you just need to keep turning the die in till you bump the shoulder enough to just bump it.this will allow you to close the bolt on a sized case with no trouble. if you can take the fireing pin out of your bolt this will help out alot.by doing this you will have a better feel when closeing the bolt a a sized case.for me I like to see the bolt some what close on its on when checking a sized case for the proper shoulder bump.( headspace ) or to just add enough help to the bolt to close on the sized case.
