My buddy has a 7WSM that we are having problems getting enough neck tension on. Some of his bullets will fall out if upside down or settle into the brass while in his ammo case. Using rcbs competition dies,and two different brass, some federal and not sure of the other brand. We called rcbs and they sent a different size bushing and I can not say it worked any better. Should try different size bushings or does anybody else have another idea? | ||

I'm not familiar with that style of die. Does it have an expander ball? ________________________________________________ Maker of The Frankenstud Sling Keeper Proudly made in the USA Acepting all forms of payment | |||

Yes it does have an expander ball. I was wondering if maybe the darn thing is just undersized | |||

Remove the decap pin/expander ball and try again ________________________________________________ Maker of The Frankenstud Sling Keeper Proudly made in the USA Acepting all forms of payment | |||

The right size bushing will depend upon the thickness of your neck brass, which will vary between manufacturers and lot numbers. Measure the outside diameter of a loaded round (where the bullet is secure) and subtract .003" for bushing size. Throw the expander away. If you don't have a loaded round where the bullet is secure in the neck, then measure and subtract .004" for bushing size. Did I mention throw the expander away? Deprime with a universal deprimer, they are cheap ____________________________________ There are those who would misteach us that to stick in a rut is consistency - and a virtue, and that to climb out of the rut is inconsistency - and a vice. - Mark Twain | Chinese Proverb: When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others. ___________________________________ | |||
