[QUOTE="cajun, post: 2035364, member: 9772"] The first thing I would do is get a headspace comparator. Hornady makes a cheap one. See if and how much you are bumping the shoulder. It’s a good tool to have. In a pinch you can use a 40 sw pistol case. As long as it indexes on the shoulder it will work. Also as others have suggested measure the case web. A mic is better but a caliper will do. [/QUOTE]
