[QUOTE="GLRUT, post: 2717605, member: 113594"] I have worked with this 7-338 improved case quite a bit in the last couple of years. The first reamer I purchased I sent the reamer prints in to get sizing dies made. They did not work so well. They were not sizing the case down in the web area enough so no matter what load I used I had clickers and hard bolt lift. The second reamer I ordered I changed some case dimensions and had a sizing reamer made so I could make my own dies. Problem solved. I would check the necks. They may have to be turned a bit but my guess is that your dies are not sizing the web area down enough. Measure a fired case at the web and a sized case and see how much it is sizing it down. The problem may be your dies not sizing down enough? [/QUOTE]
