[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1988945, member: 2736"] A well cut chamber has a nice finish so polishing should not be necessary. Polishing can alter the dimensions and the idea is to closely match the chamber. The first time you fire a case, it is fireformed to your chamber, but you have to adjust the die to get the fit you want from then on. You can always back off on the die but if it is to large you will have to grind the die or the shell holder. After you cut the die, the recommended size, it won't be that size any more because of spring back as mentioned. Dangerous game rifle dies are 6 to .008 thousandths smaller than the chamber but they will still not under size the case unless you adjust it all the way down. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
