Hey fellow Hiders - I have a question for all you benchrest reloaders. I've been reloading for quite some time now, and have been reasonably happy with the accuracy I'm getting from my reloads. However, I've found that approximately 1/10 of my reloaded rounds don't chamber properly - they are either extremely snug, or won't chamber at all. I process my brass, and have even resorted to full length sizing in my bolt gun, thinking my neck sizing wasn't sufficient. All my brass get's trimmed to spec, and I know my bullets are not touching the lands. My only guess as to why I have problems chambering on occasion, is due to insufficient crimp on the case mouth.
I'm looking for any advice/suggestions about how you benchrest shooters crimp, and also any other suggestions about what you think my problem might be if you don't believe it is the crimp.
I appreciate the help in advance!
