A friend is going to face off a m/m of the bottom of the die in hopes that this will solve the problem. My fired brass was out of a Rigby hammer 450 3 1/4 Nitro.




This happens at times. Die manufcturers have minimum and maximum tolerances. Shaving a few though off a die's bottom is a common practise amongst wildcat shooters.

I agree that ammo should not be transfered between different guns. Expansion charcteristics differ gun to gun and oversizing to fit one, makes them sloppy for the other - somtimes degrading performance and definitely reducing productive life of the brass.
