[QUOTE="Tall, post: 813084, member: 56517"] My first step is to set up my die. I screw down until it touches the shell holder, then I release the leaver and screw down the die another 1/4 turn. I then tighten the nut and raise the shell holder to check it feels right. I then lube the casings and a inside of the neck. I wipe off any oil on the outside of the neck so I don't get accidental casing indents from hydrolic pressure. I slowly re size the casing going threw the entire motion of the handle. I then wash all my brass with a mild dish soap and toss them in the tumbler. After tumbling I use a primer pocket cleaner and clean any burnt powder and make sure primer pocket is clear of any Media. I use my caliper to check the OAL of the casings and trim if needed. I use a deburing tool on each brass. I then insert primers into the primer pockets. I charge each case with an exact measure of powder. I then seat the bullet were it is touching the lans or maybe .001 shy of the lans. I have double checked and I know that my problem is not the bullet hitting the lans, I have tried a shorter COAL and it makes no difference. [/QUOTE]
