[QUOTE="winmagman, post: 70376, member: 1193"] Sometime in the next 7-10 days UPS should be bringing me a new barrel for a Savage project. I've been reading up on headspacing the barrel and the easiest way seems to be using a sized case as a guage and headspacing to the size of the case the die produces. However, this will be a new cart. for me and all I have is new brass, so what I'm wondering is if I headspace off of new brass then set up my dies to just bump the shoulder after I have some once fired brass will it make a difference? My other option is to try and buy some once fired brass, size it, and headspace from that. Any input appreciated. Chris [/QUOTE]
