So got back after it. Tried RCBS shell holder to match the dies. It helped ever so slight but not by much. I pulled out some factory loads and started measuring cases. I measured fired cases and the fired and sized/deprimed cases. The factory loaded ammo are under specs and sized cases are just a hair under but about right on specs. Once fired unsized are over on legnth(expected) but not by much but are under the sized case specs so they chamber easier then sized cases. I think I may just have a really tight chamber as had been suggested by a gunsmith. I am going to try small base dies next. I tried the marker trick, no rub areas showed.

Now to run the Rhinos out. Starting with Giles in Mesa

Putting this back up. Got some hunting rifle and reloading projects coming,

This weekend was great, perfect hunting weather in my opinion. Not so much this coming weekend for the 😡 actual hunt . Oh well glad to be at it after nothing for 4 years

i'll pick up some new brass and try. I will let everyone know what worked. rifle is getting bedded currently so won't have it for a week or 2 to mess around with. My problem isn't as bad as others that I have read about so I don't think my solution is far off.

Well I will give it a try. It’s an inexpensive attempt at worst. I appreciate your willingness to help out. This forum never disappoints…most of the time lol

Have calipers but no comparator set. I’ll eventually get some. Using a Lee trim gauge, caliber specific, right now and then manually(calipers) checking specs. The base is alittle out of spec, like it’s not sizing all the way down. A gunsmith tonight told me it would likely be ok if it’s closing the way I described it but that it sounded like it is just a little off specs and likely a tighter then usual factory chamber with something alittle off, thus why factory ammo works but resized ammo not.

yes, a factory Win m70 sporter. Lee shell holder. No headspace gauge. I will get a RCBS shell holder and the sizing die wax, you're the second or third person to recommend the wax.

How did you get to that? Nothing I've done has helped

Winchester nickel plated and some federal brass- Both previously shot out of the rifle I am loading for. Neither seem to act any different in terms f running through the press and dies or the rifle

Yes this all helps, thanks. Reloaded other calibers before(308, 223) never had any issues. So its a learning experience. Haven't actually completed a load with this round due to finding this problem first. 1. Lee classic-O style 2. RCBS case lube 3. I will try this 4. Yes done this and retried mulitple times just to be sure- Way over cammed just to see, still nothing 5. Yeah I could see that going wrong real quick-didnt like that suggestion from the get go

So what did you end up doing? This is a great thread and gives lots of thought.
