    So now you have a bunch of doubtful rounds and plenty of solutions for how to avoid this happening again. I dont have any more. I do have a suggestion for your loaded rounds though as I have found...

    This is definitely a problem often overlooked. If you cant get a small base die, then giving the web of the case a rub with fine emery paper will overcome the problem

    Interesting thoughts of yours re: the concept of the decapping ball pulling the shoulder on the up-stroke, I was having this problem with 1/10 rounds with .270WSM using Lee dies, and thought I must...

    Yip, FL size them and try the resized case in the chamber before you load it. Believe it or not, not all dies, FL or NS are created equally. So a RCBS die might resize to just a minimal dimension...

    could be too long case lenght and needing a trim could be the decapping ball pulling the shoulder forward a bit on the up stroke (too much friction and needs a bit of lube) could be that the...

    Without more information, the most likely reason is the cases were fired first in another rifle, that has a slightly larger chamber than the new rifle. If so, they should be full length sized as...

    most are solved by winding the FL die down a little more lubing the expander ball or inside the case necks should help that firm lift. I forget that old dies dont need it and new dies kind of...

    Unclear if the once fired cases were fired in the new rifle/chamber. I'm guessing not. Need to FLS. Check trim to length. Try before loading (should do that as part of FLSing process at any rate....
