[QUOTE="Firearrow, post: 416866, member: 18733"] I just started to work up a load for my rifle for the first time ever, started at the bottom, and was going to work it up. Quick history on what I have done. Took fire formed cases, neck sized them, trimmed lengths for consistancy, primed, power, bullets inserted. Went to the range today feeling all special with my new loads, sat down, went to chamber the round and ****, took a little effort to chamber the round. I forgot to bumb the should back. So the question is do you bump the shoulder first, then neck size it, or is it the other way around? And what is the correct way to setting up the body sizing die to just bump the should back .001 (or what ever you guys suggest). Also should I redo my whole batch. The rounds will chamber, but like I said it takes a little effort to close the action. Just to thow this in as well. I don't believe the bullet is touching the lands. I took the ID of my factory mag, and reduced to OAL of the round a bit. I also chambered a round, and ejected it, and I did't see any wear marks on the bullet, and there was not. Any help is greatly appreciated. Garett [/QUOTE]
