    It also depends on your rifle, I have 110 HS Percision and can only get 5 reloads, then brass expands to much and starts locking up bolt. I am only loading 85 grs H1000

    If you haven't tried this... after your 5th firing, anneal, do a full resize, then trim and turn the necks. Avoid the temptation to remove too much, I have one unfired Lapua case that I use for measurements and to setup trimmers and turning gear.
    That will pretty much put the brass back to factory spec.
