[QUOTE="adiredneck, post: 997572, member: 43329"] Why is it that I can load 50 rounds and 1/2 of them chamber hard? All brass is within spec as far as my trim-to length. Several calibers. Same head stamp brass. I've been having accuracy issues with the 30-06 and 7mm-08 lately. I wondered if the hard chambering is causing my groups to open up? I just bumped my sizing die for the 7mm-08 in by about an 8th of a turn. I loaded a dummy round and it is much better now. I won't be able to test until next weekend. Is the problem my press? I have a Hornady Lock n load single stage press. I suspect it's the press, or specifically the quick change bushing. This happens with 3 or 4 calibers from 22-250 up to the 30-06. I do have an old Rcbs Partner press that I use strictly for my Forster bullet puller. I suppose I could try taking the quick change bushings off a sizing die and see if the problem goes away. Any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
