    Case head separation?

    High pressure ‘sticks’ the more forward portion of the case wall to the chamber wall all whilst blowing the case head rearward ‘til slowed by collision with the T/C’s firing pin bushing but continues on rearward a bit more as the rearward thrust causes the T’C’s frame to stretch, adding that...

    Definitely NOT happy with new Redding Dies!

    Thinkin’ trying to shove a .255” fired neck OD into a .245” ID neck bushing, without using a 2nd intermediate bushing size to step down the neck OD instead of knocking it down .010” all in one big whack, is pretty much a guarantee of non-concentricity. Dragging the inside of the neck over an...

    I try to accomplish same far as having the case park the bullet set on a path as near perfectly centered and aligned with the bore as I’m able, working with production line dies and stuff, all of it made by other folks. What are/were the case neck diameters for (1) fired case fresh out the...

    What specifically were you never able to adjust about the Redding FL “S” die to have it do what for your case’s measured dimensions, that made it not only the #1 worst size die, but the #1 worst die of the whole bunch?

    My brass does not fit chamber

    I doubt a “small base” die is going to squish in enough where you point to high up on the case body to ever rid it of the memory that that brass has formed of having been fired in somebody else’s apparently much more cavernous chamber, to ever have that brass running well in your chamber. If...

    My brass does not fit chamber

    Compare the case head to shoulder datum length of the once fired, re-sized brass to that of the new Lapua brass. If the brass once fired in somebody else’s 284 Win. chamber and full length re-sized per the setup instructions of most manufacturers’ dies is longer from its head to shoulder datum...

    Those ‘bout got to be the thinnest of neck walls allowed in any factory SAAMI spec 6.5 Creedmoor brass to have a standard non-neck bushing die not size down the neck OD so far that expanding the neck ID is not necessary. It’s either that or you’re butchering the jacket by using the bullet as the...

    Something to contemplate

    Thinkin’ that after near exactly 240 years since the original and it requiring few changes to reflect the differences in now day’s circumstances, it’s high time for a second issuance of much the same Declaration and for all pretty much the same reasons…

    Definitely NOT happy with new Redding Dies!

    I have installed the Redding floating carbide expander balls, much better all around. The next off the shelf regular ol’ Full Length size dies I try will be Forster with the high mounted expander. The upper end of the case neck is still held positioned centered within the die’s neck at the...

    I do mine ~ same as bigedp51 and AZShooter except that once I stop the expander ball ‘bout half way through the neck, I then reverse the ram to put a tad of upwards pressure on the de-cap/expander stem to top it out in the play in the threads and also to shove it in the same direction that...
