[QUOTE="Kevin Thomas, post: 590409, member: 15748"] Tikka, The indentations on the shoulders sound like your run-of-the-mill lube dents. This is caused by an excess of lube during the sizing process. Being non-compressable, that lube will "go" somewhere when it gets trapped between die body and case, and the only way it can go is to push the brass in a bit. This leaves the dents you've described. Use a bit less lube, and keep the shoulders mostly free of the stuff, and this problem will disappear in short order. In the meantime, the brass should be fine. Not quite sure about the "groove" you're describing. Be possible to post a pic of these? Could be a number of things, but would like to see them before hazarding a guess. [/QUOTE]
