[QUOTE="GW Hunter, post: 1431619, member: 90347"] Ok... so i annealed my brass for the first time. I believe I did a pretty good job for the first time, nice even, light color change just below the shoulder. Resized the brass and the length did not change (still long) so I decided to buy a new box of Weatherby brass. Reloaded it, shot it at low to medium loads (no pressure signs on any component). Came home, deprimed, cleaned and measured the brass. 2.118" from the base to midpoint of the shoulder. Ran one case through the die (with the expander ball removed) and it came out measuring 2.122". This die has always pushed the shoulder back to 2.120. Nothing has changed. The die is locked tight. I use the cam over method, so it cannot be set any lower anyway... HELP!!! Am I just losing my mind on this one???? [/QUOTE]
