.338 LM Lapua Brass won't fit in Shell Holders

[texasvmi]

I am completely stumped. I can run Hornady, Norma, ect .338LM Brass easily into the recommended shell holders, However, when I try to insert a piece of Lapua Brass (my choice Brand) will not fit in the RCBS #14 or Redding #35 Shell holders. I am at at loss. I have done a multi day extensive search on the Hide and through out the internet. If anyone has any advice on what to do, I am all ears. Thanks for your help.

This has been discussed here before......

There are variances in the rim of different lots of Lapua brass.

Run a Lee #8 shell holder (45/70) and be done. I have run Lapua, TTI, Norma & LPT military 338LM brass thru them without any issues.
