good information Hotold's. I tried the same thing before going to a long action 280 AI. I had luck bending the WSM lips inward on the forward end. It made it hard to load and tore up the brass. I tweaked around on it for a while and finally got it right. I had to hone sand and polish the sharp edges on the fed lip or it destroyed the brass going in. I like to do that stuff but for some it isn't worth it.
