To those who know more.
I'm new to reloading (>1200 rnds) and I think I am over-resizing my brass. I use a RCBS comp die set and following the instructions, I raised the press ram and screwed the FL die down to where it touched the ram. The resultant rounds were tight with two out of ten not allowing me to close the bolt. I went back to the press and started turning down the die 1/8 turn at a time and trying to chamber the brass. I got to the point where the bolt closes easily but wonder if I went to far and am overworking my brass. I'm talking about a .308 in a Rem 700 sps. Any thoughts?
Thanks, Mike
