[QUOTE="woods, post: 396867, member: 6042"] Hey tgh It is really not going to matter if your chamber is short shouldered or the die is long shouldered the problem is still going to be the same. It is possible to get another die and it will contact the shoulder but you are just taking a chance and spending some more $$$$. It seems that more and more factory rifles are being chambered short shouldered, large bodied and long throated nowadays. You could send a case to Redding and they will make you a body die that will fit your chamber better or have a machine shop cut off the die square on the bottom. Either will solve your problem. The place I had mine done was a bolt manufacturing facility. They had all kinds of shop tools and did a perfect job. Check around, you might get lucky. BTW - since you are measuring .002" to .003" with the Hornady Headspace tool, then the problem is most likely the die. [/QUOTE]
