[QUOTE="Tall, post: 814483, member: 56517"] Update: I went through all of my 150 brass sorting the brass by how it fits in my gun. I had about 30 that wouldn't even go in my gun without using some serious muscle to close my bolt. Those that didn't fit i set aside. 60 brass fit in my gun perfect like it is suppose to. The rest would fit but was a tight fit. I suspect that my problem is that a number of brass was mixed in with my brass in my beginning stages of learning how to reload. When the brass is re sized some were a tight fit while the brass shot in my gun was still a perfect fit. Even after some of the brass has been reloaded and shot in my gun the fire form has not been enough to create the perfect fit to my gun. I have contacted RCBS and they told me to send them 5 brass that has been fired in my gun along with my resizing die. They are going to custom fit the die to the brass fired in my gun. I don't know if I will ever be able to re size the brass fired from other guns to be a perfect fit in my gun. I think that my solution is to buy brand new brass and never allow other brass to be mixed in with my own. I need to find a good way to track my brass. Like how many times it has been reloaded, or the speed and accuracy of each load. Notes on any flaws or fitting issues along the way. There is a lot of things to do to create perfection in reloading and accuracy for long distance shooting. [/QUOTE]
