[QUOTE="Tidesloe, post: 3027999, member: 47761"] If anyone is still hanging around this thread, I have an update. I may have jumped to gun. The problem still exists. A completely different fire form load that's forming much much better and I'm back to having to bump .006. The one thing consistent is the distance I've got to be is from base to shoulder. Up to that point with resistance if I give it a little pressure, it doesn't stick the case. The case will fall right out. The adjustments I'm making sure seems like it would be bumping it more than .006. Another member replying here brought up this "anomaly", as someone else online put it, but it might not be an anomaly. I'm still not opposed to casting my chamber and die, but I'm also looking at the brass. I use an amp annealer, and with a WSM pilot it's barely annealing to the shoulder body junction, and the brass very resistant to bumping. I can't imagine this brass is springing forward at the shoulder after firing, but I'm not sure what else to think. I was convinced the other day that with the extractor out I was only bumping .0035 to chamber. That brass started out shorter than the brass I tested after changing my fire form load. As the other member was telling me in a PM, I shouldn't be having to bump even .003. The search for the answer will continue [/QUOTE]
