[QUOTE="MNbogboy, post: 1468685, member: 18849"] +2 on all responses. Without seeing pictures from the OP it is hard to say whether or not he is experiencing "IHS". Most of us have learned the hard way long before internet! I applaud the OP for being proactive with this matter. My advice is to make sure to set the full length die to .002 "bump". One of the most common mistakes that "new" reloaders make is to set fl dies according to the instructions that are shipped with the die! They work but one size fits all is not optimal. Btw I made a tool by heating up the tip of a flat screwdriver and bending a tight 90 at the tip. Then shaped it with a small file. You can really "feel" imperfections with it. But with proper die setup there is barely a need for it anymore. Randy [/QUOTE]
