I am at the wits end with using a Forster FL die for my 6.5x47 Lapua. It seems that no matter what I do I can't seem to make it work. I have a similar product for my 6 mm BR and it works with no problems. But this....well...I have no idea what to do. Called the company but yet I have no solid direction as to what it might be wrong. If after reading this you have the desire, the knowledge, and a little time I would appreciate a short phone consultation when I get home from work today. The rifle is a Savage target action RBLP with a Criterion 28" barrel. When cycling a spent case things work well, namely I can close the bolt with not pressure. Then I put the case in the press and after I deccaped and resized the case I can only cycle that case with significant pressure (anything involving pressure on my part is no good). I use a Hornady Lock and Load headspace measuring tool (C = .375") and I see that even though the shoulder has been bumped by .001 or even stayed the same the cycling becomes as described above. I have tried to load a cartridge with powder and seat the bullet but discovered that it took significantly more pressure to sit the bullet and shaves of steel came at the mouth. One more thing, when I cycle the resized case with pressure I see a ring on the shoulder of the case. Can't explain what is happening. I tried all the methods suggested on this site and elsewhere regarding setting the die including the instructions which came with the die (raising the ram and have the shell holder touch the die then go 1/8-1/4 further clockwise).
