    Do you have a number of firings before you full length size and trim it? I was going to full length size it after 4 firings and trim to case max length.



    Savage. Killing me. Hahahahhahahaha.
    Do the FL thing and see how that works. I'm picking if it's tight to chamber this will be your problem.
    It's not a F Class rifle so to FL size regularly won't hurt. I like to know my neck tension is as consistent as I can get it without getting too wound up about it so I have a preference for Redding Type S dies. My last 243Win I only had a Type S FL die and it was just as accurate as any rifle I have owned. FL sizing every 4th time should be a good start I'd guess but there are plenty of more experienced reloaders on here who may have better advice.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
