[QUOTE="victor3ranger, post: 3057388, member: 127035"] I have had the same problems with fired 7mag, 300Win mag, and 7 STW brass that I got from other people. I resized like I have for 40 years without a hitch but all that brass was fired from my chambers. No matter what I did they either wouldn't chamber or where extremely hard to chamber. Even using Redding custom shellholders I couldn’t fix the problem, the shoulder was pushed back but the body wasn’t getting resized. After checking the size of the case just above the belt I found that I wasn't able to get that part sized down enough. So, I ordered a Willis die and used it, on some I had to run it through 2-3 times while adjusting the collet around the case. I ended up having to do that with several hundred cases. After those cases were fired in my chambers they all have resized normally so far. [/QUOTE]
