[QUOTE="GW Hunter, post: 1431750, member: 90347"] My bad.. my repeatedly FIRED cases have always been 2.120" and then once resized the shoulder has always been pushed back to 2.118". The fired case that I mention was a brand new, once fired case that has not been stretched to the full chamber dimension yet... After one firing the shoulder was at 2.118" and after full length resizing it grew to 2.122". Same shell holder as always and the expander ball removed from the die. The die is in the same position as it has always been.... I can get the 2.122" case to chamber with a little muscle (although more than I am comfortable with), anything longer does not chamber.... I've been reloading this rifle for nearly 30 years and have never had this issue. Is it possible that the die has worn out? I find that hard to believe... [/QUOTE]
