[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 910721, member: 10755"] MontanaRifleman, I set my dies by measuring the fired cases with a RCBS Precisiin Mic, this is a precise measuring tool, and no, your technique as I outlined is NOT FL SIZING, it is PARTIAL SIZING. This is how I get .002" shoulder bump and the 'feel' when closing the bolt. This is called PARTIAL SIZING. This was the point I was trying to make, you may think that the upteen posts you made about your method of sizing cases was informative and helpful, obviously wasn't to the OP, because he still had the same trouble. I don't care what method you or I use to size our cases, the OP needed to understand that a case fired in another rifle will almost always need to be sized as the INSTRUCTIONS SAY TO BRING THE CASE BACK TO FACTORY SPECS SO THAT IT WILL FIT ANY CHAMBER. Even +.003" in shoulder length will cause hard chambering in most bolt actions. Again, telling the OP how YOU do it did not help his situation and was just nonsense. Just because none of your rifles have minimum chambers DOES NOT mean that your technique is the right or wrong one, in many cases your technique works, but not in every situation, I have chambers that need to have .010" machined off the shellholder to reduce the case enough to chamber, do you think your technique would work for this situation? I could put a .010" feeler gauge under the case to achieve the same thing, but this is tedious when loading 100 or more cases. Good luck to you sir. gun) [/QUOTE]
