[QUOTE="4xforfun, post: 1272750, member: 9172"] Let me see if I have this strait. Your fired brass fits back in the gun easily before it ever sees a die .. Yes No If yes, you say you can run the brass through you FL die...you can feel the brass being squeezed, but the length actually grows in length , even with the die screwed all the way to the shell holder.....Yes No AFTER you size your brass as above it does not fit in the chamber, or chambers hard....Yes No If the answer to the above questions is yes, either you need to machine a few thousands off of the bottom of your die or you can get shell holders that are different thicknesses. This will allow your brass to push deeper into your die. You can test by sticking different thicknesses of feeler gauges between your shell holder and the bottom of your brass. Start with a couple of thou, run the brass through the die and check the fit in the gun. If no go, add a couple more thou and try again. If you don't have access to a feeler gauges you can try scotch tape on the bottom of your case. 1 layer = about .002. Thanks, Tod [/QUOTE]
