[QUOTE="IDelkhunter, post: 1187474, member: 43404"] So glad to see this post....been beating my head against the wall lately. I have been making my own cases as well, but have recently discovered that I need to size the body without touching the neck to get it to fit cleanly in the chamber and stop consistently. Which leads me to wonder about the affect of bumping the shoulder on the measurement? Common sense would tell you to bump it to the same headspace with the same die set up the same way, but I am finding .003-.004 difference between some of the fired cases and .002-.003 on sized cases. Making several modified cases with different headspace measurements shows significant variation in CBTO measurements. Can someone help me with my logic here?..... Thanks, Marcus [/QUOTE]
