[QUOTE="lerch, post: 76783, member: 3115"] I was breaking in the barrel on my new 25-06 yesterday and I compared a fired casing to a factory federal casing. Just by eye balling it I could see the shoulder looked dramatically wider. I used caliper on the shoulder line and I came up with .433 for the unfired and .443 for the fired brass. I am just curious as to what is normal for case expansion in a factory chamber. I was also wondering how much difference this will make in case capacity as I will be partial full length sizing this brass. Thanks Steve [/QUOTE]
