[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 835406, member: 22335"] Having read the thread I note that you are primarily trying to use once-fired brass from this rifle back in this same rifle. If so, why not try just neck sizing it and leave the shoulder alone? A fairly inexpensive option is a Lee Collet Die which is very easy to set up and use. I've even taken random brass that would fit in my rifle (i.e. did not need to have the shoulder bumped), neck sized it, and used it with no problems. [URL="http://www.midwayusa.com/product/472118/lee-collet-neck-sizer-die-270-winchester"]Lee Collet Neck Sizer Die 270 Winchester[/URL] By doing this you'd avoid all of your shoulder problems, work the brass far less, and keep your hair. :D I do this with my own 270 and it shoots exceptionally well. You can often get several reloads out of the brass before worrying about the shoulder. I usually buy the whole 3 die set from Lee as it's so inexpensive rather than just the Collet die, but obviously it's your preference. [/QUOTE]
