[QUOTE="Rhovee, post: 1339266, member: 101820"] Just thought I would put in my experience. I was losing sleep over having to much bump back. Turns out is was right the whole time. It can be deceiving to say just measure a fired case and dial the die down tell you get .002 bump back. I tried that method and my bolt wouldn't close without resistance. If you can't rechamber a fired case then you will need to bump more that .002 to actually have .002 clearance if that makes sense. I am at 4-4.5 thou clearance from a fired case to a true 1.5-2 thou bump. At 2.5-3 I have the smallest amount of resistence closing. 4-4.5 is very smooth. Using a fired case as your bench isn't always true as Broz pointed out in his video. If it won't chamber it's not your actual chamber length. [/QUOTE]
