[QUOTE="entoptics, post: 2146161, member: 104268"] Are you measuring how much you bumped the shoulders back? I've found that if you aren't setting the die deep enough to hit the shoulder, the base to shoulder length will often [U][I]grow[/I][/U] a few thousands. Presumably because the body gets squished, and that has to go somewhere, which ends up being towards the top of the case. If these are once fired cases, close to the actual size of your chamber, it wouldn't take much growth to cause a crush fit when chambered. [/QUOTE]
