[QUOTE="doverpack12, post: 2927327, member: 57848"] Laguna, I had a base sizing issue with my Tikka 300 WSM. Did a lot of research and reading. There are a few die options, shell holders won’t fix 0.557” base. I managed to find a Wilson size die that fits my chamber really well when following the wheeler video for die/chamber fit. Eric Cortina just released a mandrel die that also sizes only the base for this very issue. They are under $100 and work! I bought one for me and one for my father in laws 270 WSM that was having the same problem. Other option is the Micron die mentioned earlier. Ryan Pierce sells them and says they will size the smallest of any die out there. Bullet central also sells them but a single die is pushing $300 I looked and looked to see if I could find a Larry Willis type die or a bulge buster type die I use for my 10mm. None exist and with the slightly straighter walls you can’t use 300 RUM and remove material off the bottom of the die. [/QUOTE]
