[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 914034, member: 5219"] Gene, I think you accidentally said to start with die against shell holder. All your directions are good except that starting point. Can't move die much lower as you begin to cam against shell holder in next adjustment. I think you meant start with FL die away from shell holder several turns and size case. Try the wiped off sized case in chamber. If it is tight then progressively move die towards shell holder 1/8-1/4 turn at a time till sized case fits with little or no resistance when closing the bolt. Once you have the proper distance established you could tighten the set screw on lock ring or better use feeler gauges to measure the gap. I put the feeler gauges in the box. Also write reminder notes with sharpy on inside of box lid as to what works, OAL etc. [/QUOTE]
