[QUOTE="MNbogboy, post: 1693183, member: 18849"] +1 on Remmy's post A. properly set fl dies for min bump are no longer saami spec. B. Instructions that come with most dies often lead to overworked cases. C. Always use a different piece of fired brass for every adjustment. Using the same piece over & over as you adjust will eventually get you to desired bump. Most likely, because of springback, the next piece will be overbumped. Measure every piece base to shoulder with a case comparator. Keeping in mind that mfg., lot number, annealing and other brass difference will all affect bump measurement. My .02, Randy [/QUOTE]
