[QUOTE="jimbires, post: 552143, member: 11011"] the coin trick is probably only allowing you to size the neck . the problem doing this is you will need to bump the shoulder back after 2 or 3 firings , or the brass case will be hard to chamber . you need a tool to measure case length with . RCBS doesn't make a precision mic for the 300wby , that I know of , I like these . I'm using the Hornady tool to measure my wby with . I'm also using a set of redding competition shell holders . I measure my case length to the shoulder on a fired case , then I resize with a .010 redding shell holder . if I didn't push the shoulder back .002 - .003 , I then use the .008 shell holder . I keep going shorter with the shell holders until I moved the case shoulder .002 - .003 . sizing like this the case will chamber easily and your brass life should be much longer . setting the die up with the coin should not have changed your neck size , diameter . it should fit the bullet the same as when you were adjusted down tight .
