    Ben, find brass that meets the criteria below

    1 - Factory round, pull the projectile and dump powder, confirm it fits in your chamber
    2- case fired in your chamber, sized and fits back in your chamber
    3 - case fired in your chamber, sized but does not fit back in your chamber
    4 - case fired in your chamber and has not been resized yet

    Then, for all of them, take the following dimensions and record it in a table. Record it in inches also, I.e 2.215”
    A - Using the headspace comparator, measure from base to shoulder
    B - case neck diameter,
    C - case web diameter, measured at the 0.200 datum (if you don’t know what this is, Google it, but basically at a point 0.200 inches up from the base of the case.)

    Once you’ve shared those dimensions, we can see where the issue lies.
    Borris and BenTheBuilder like this.
