[QUOTE="Pointman, post: 1763447, member: 102254"] Bad in my younger days reloading, early '70s, I was trying to get my newly barrelled custom 25-06 to shoot really small groups. I noticed a single sentence in RCBS die instructions that mentioned "partial" sizing. They recommended running the FL die into the press until it touched the shell holder then back out 1/2 turn. I shot the brass, reformed LC 30-06 WWII brass 10 load cycles before the final retirement. I've tried that on other rifles with mixed results which has lead me to believe that each is a "law unto itself". I now use match sizing dies since I no longer hunt anything other than paper, knees are shot. [/QUOTE]
