[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 315459, member: 11717"] You could use a sharpie and blacken your bullet ogive, or.... This is how I do it.... -Neck size or partially neck size case -Seat bullet fully into neck up to the ogive -Pull the bullet with a kinetic bullet puller -Re-seat the bullet and pull, repeating this process until the neck stretches enough to seat and pull the bullet by hand with a little force. -Then seat the bullet long, place it into the chamber and gently close the bolt on it. The rifling will push the bullet into the neck so it's just touching the lands. -Carefully extract the cartridge, holding the the case down with one finger so it doesn't flip up. Carefully remove and measure. Repeat the long seating, chamber and extraction steps about two more times for confirmation. Hope that helps, -MR [/QUOTE]
