[QUOTE="thatguyshm, post: 840627, member: 69989"] I full length size most of my brass. So the factory ammo is sliding in perfectly? Have you mic'd the once fired before resizing? Have you tried it in the chamber before resizing? I usually set my die all the way down to the shell holder than back it off about 1/32 of a turn. Then I will put imperial sizing wax on a case, run it through so that I can get a full stroke with the ram. When it comes out, I check to see how far down neck the wax was affected by the resizing. I want it close to the shoulder but not all the way to it. I guess I would be mic'ing every part of the once fired before and after resizing and seeing if perhaps you are seating the die too far down. Almost sounds like its squishing the brass slightly. The only thing I can say though, is that I would expect right behind the shoulder to bulge, not near the rim. Just my .02 cent... Seth [/QUOTE]
