[QUOTE="MZmoose, post: 1980976, member: 41085"] It's the gun not the dies. I did some handloading for a friend's model 7 in .260 Rem. The chamber is tight and the throat was ridiculously short. Even rounds loaded to spec by the manuals were jamming bullets into the rifling. I had to seat the bullets so deeply that I would run out of powder space before I would get pressure signs with some powders. Really cut down on the rounds velocity. It did chamber the one box of Rem factory loads he had and showed pressure signs. I told my friend that it's such a headache to load for and not achieving that cartridges potential he should have it gunsmithed or sell it. [/QUOTE]
