[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 28443, member: 34"] Penn Don't bump the shoulders so much, if any. Your pushing the juncture of the shoulder into the neck area creating the tightness at the base of the neck. It's better to have some snugness against the bolt anyway. The cartridge is fitting the chamber better. Try full length resizing but, not bumping at all and set the die so you only resize the neck 1/2 way down. If you use a neck bushing, with a full length die, you can accomplish the exact neck tension your after as long as you know what your neck diameter is in the chamber. See what your extreme spread is without any shoulder bumping. I like very little neck tension. Later DC [/QUOTE]
