[QUOTE="Tagnbagem, post: 2870812, member: 103745"] One easy way to check to see if you are bumping your brass correctly for your chamber. Is to add a piece of scotch tape( approx. .002) to the case head and insert into chamber. If it close easily your at least .002 off. Keep adding tape till you feel slight resistance that’s how much headspace you have. Also if it’s once fired brass chance are you aren’t to full chamber size usually takes at least 2 firings. If you don’t let it grow to full size and keep bumping back after every firing you will never get to full size. You’ll overly stretch the brass causing premature case failure. [/QUOTE]
