[QUOTE="Polaris_Doc, post: 2870717, member: 109055"] I had the same problem with a 300 WSM years back. Some cases where chambering perfectly fine, others were closing very hard to the point I galled the lugs. I was also camming over the Press and thought they were being pushed back, but that was before I had measuring tools. One day I happened to be sitting lower in a chair and could see daylight underneath the die between the shell holder. I was camming over, but it still wasn't making hard contact. Ends up being the Press was flexing enough to give the illusion of the shoulders pushing back but there is just that much deflection. Turned the die in about another turn and they cammed over harder, die moved to contact with the shell holder based on not being able to get a .001" feeler gauge underneath. Those cases chambered just fine after that. Now I use an AMP annealer on every single firing for all my brass. Now my limitations are how long the primer pockets hold up. [/QUOTE]
