300WM sizing

[Thor69]

Noob here, with noob question: I've read I should set my shoulder bump to -.002" from fire brass length. Well, on checking my die setup, I'm at -.0015"...should I bother chasing that last-.0005"?

No

Nope. This is worth buying though if you are going to stay with belted magnums.

Our patented resizing die can reload Winchester, Remington and Weatherby belted magnums up to 20 times, instead of just 2 or 3 times and the top of the die is a chamber width gauge.

Thor69 , I’m curious how many times you’ll be able to resize the case before the belt starts giving you issues & are forced to get the Larry Willis die

I'll let you know when/if that happens.

I have a few with loose pockets that are in my "Give to Butch to melt and make artsy_fartsy stuff with" bucket, but none that have swelled at the belt.

I don't know that I will keep it a Magnum. Thinking about rebarelling for 300 PRC.
