[QUOTE="Remmy700, post: 1693112, member: 36564"] We are talking about the same thing here. You need truly fireformed cases to set up your FL die correctly and get correct shoulder bump. You can bump once fired brass back a .0015 if you want but what are you bumping it back from? I want my brass back close to SAAMI specs with exception to my base to shoulder number. That is what I want to ensure is only getting push back .0015 from actual real world chamber size so I am working my brass minimally. There are other options for getting this real world number also but I prefer my brass not to chamber such as OP situation and then get my measurement and slowly adjust the die to my liking on bolt close firmness. There are a bunch of ways to do it. We are talking about the same thing though and my method is right, wrong or indifferent but its my way and it works for me. [/QUOTE]
