[QUOTE="dwm, post: 5985, member: 1136"] baldeagle713 - Lugs look fine, I did check them. Brent - The first load used to break in the barrel was 98 Grains of WC872 behind a 162 SST. No problems at all. The two loads used at second time to the range were: 93.5 GR Retumbo behind a 162 AMAX and 92.5 GR Retumbo behind a 168 Berger VLD. Fed GM 215 Match primers. Brass neck thickness is 0.013, reamer spec'd at 0.3135 shoulder and 0.3125 at case mouth. A 0.308 bushing was used to size the case necks. The cases measured to be a bit less than 2.84 inches after sizing. Didn't need tot trim. I did bump the shoulders back with the body die. Is this not good enough? I didn't think I had to FL size them if I used the Redding body die. Headspace seemed fine as they chambered easily. Doug [/QUOTE]
