[QUOTE="MR.T., post: 3786910, member: 4793"] Can you anneal the brass ro make it run thru the sizing process easier? I'm not sure if this will work, just wondering. I've done some 30-06 that was way to difficult to run thru the dies. I got them thru the process, but I was wondering if I was going to rip the case apart or bend the handle on my press. Now those pieces took the bullet seat just fine, but some were hard to chamber in the gun, & a few wouldn't even chamber. That is when I got to doing some measuring & fot a "Go-no go" guage. The entire body of some of that brass were so oversized even after forcing them thru the dies I just smashed them & tossed them into the scrap bucket. [/QUOTE]
