    Try running the tight ones through the sizing die again, pausing for a moment when the case is fully into the die.
    You should test for correct fit to chamber by first removing the firing pin from the bolt. The sizing is good when the
    bolt closes with no noticeable downward pressure. Make sure you clean all the lube off the case before doing the chamber check.
