[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 2132776, member: 48043"] Sometimes when shortening brass the spring-back is enough that you actually need to go further than normal die limits by a bit to get usable brass. I had to run my 6.5 creed dies all the way down just to get 243's and 308's to make some semblance of a creed brass, and those were tough to chamber. I don't do this any longer as creed brass is available, but if I were still forming creed brass this way I'd have either shortened the base of the die a bit so the brass can go deeper, or get a Redding shellholder with the higher base (the competition shellholders?) to shove the brass in just a bit deeper.
