Just got some 300 win mag brass from a mate , sized it full length and there is no way the bolt goes past half cock. Both rifles are Tikka T3s. I have just ordered a RCBS trim die which should solve the problem. These dies allow you to trim your shells and most importantly they re form the shell back to factory specs. I have them for 308 and 3006 and they work well, we used them a lot when we used semi autos so we didn't get caught with a tight shell .
Do modern magnum chambers still headspace off the belt?
Can you resize the belted area if it gets stretched out of spec?
