Hi Guys. (mike, mike, mike.... What day is it?!!!!)
Ok, cleaned up some brass last night and started over on resetting everything on the FL decapping die. (only) -1 step at a time.
Made sure the case being worked on was going ALL the way into the die. (PITA)
In doing so, I had to make sure the case is very lubed. (almost wet)
but it goes all the way now. If I go too far, it wrinkles the shoulder and the case will not chamber. (had to kill 3 cases b4 getting it set right)
The inside diameter of the neck measures .302.5 now.
I picked up a brand new case guage, some cases were over in length and some close and some good to go (GTG).
I need to trim them down now and set the seating die next.
Thanks ALL for the greeat information to get me thinking.
it's a reloader, how much "could" go wrong?
(I know, if you can think it, it will screw up)
