[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 312446, member: 307"] I run them through a FL sizing die (for sizing) to round out the necks (to make them round and get the same tension). I check the length and make sure they are 2.490" or very close to it. I look for any odd balls at this time. I deburr the necks and the flash holes. I use a nylon brush to clean out the necks also. After this first shooting, they are fire-formed for my chamber and I reset my die to just bump the shoulder. I smoke the case and slowly adjust the die down until I can see it just touching the shoulder. Then I wipe it off and try it in my rifle. I do this until I get the exact feel of the bolt lock down that I'm looking for. Not too easy but definately not to hard. I'll leave the die set like this until the cases start get hard to chamber on subsequent loadings. JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
