[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 2009019, member: 5219"] I first encountered this issue with the 300 Rum. Later same thing with the 338 RCM and 300 WSM. I solved the issue by buying an extra RCBS FL die and removing a portion of the top and bottom of the die. It was done on a lathe with a carbide tool bit. Once the tool bit goes through the case hardened exterior it machines easily. I made my own custom small base die that has quite a bit of adjustment and only alters the diameter of the base. No more bolt lift "snick" or closure issues. [/QUOTE]
