[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2290524, member: 10755"] It’s not just overworking the shoulder length, it’s also overworking the case body that causes this too. A body die can eliminate this, they do not displace brass the same way as a conventional die and also work them less. Redding dies seem to work the brass the least, both in body sizing and neck sizing, mine move the neck .002” on average. Which is what I want when I order Forster dies with honed necks. They also size a minimum amount in the body too. When you overwork the body, that brass is displaced into the shoulder, where it is then worked more to push it back. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
