see what will fully seat. I may be thinking wrong but 0.012 x 2 = 0.024 + (0.400) = 0.424. After a pass through, fully loaded, in a .40 S&W sizer they came out 0.417" and chambered fully. The bullets were re-sized in the brass, wish I'd measured them. I figure 0.393", deducting the case thickness. The re-sizing ironed out all the neck tension, so I re-crimped them.

I really need to get the correct dies and go from there. There is a scientific order to these things and I'm not following it correctly.

I shot the .400 GNR a little, forming cases. - WB, 2020-01-04, 18:41
- A revisit of the whole story... - WB, 2020-01-05, 12:25
- I used 30-30 brass I picked up at the range - Sean Harper, 2020-01-04, 20:35
  - Yeah I'm sure it will. Cast bullets did you - WB, 2020-01-04, 21:14
    - .401”, accuracy with 255,285 gr cast was very good - Sean Harper, 2020-01-05, 08:42
      - I hae a 10mm 230 and a 270 .41 - WB, 2020-01-05, 12:17
- In that case, Starline 38-55 Brass will cure the other issue - Huey, 2020-01-04, 18:44
  - when I order dies I give them all the measurements - gary reeder, 2020-01-04, 20:14
