I am reluctant to join this but here goes. Just before getting on an airplane for a three week trip to Africa, I loaded my ammo using new cases. The rifle, a 270, had a minimum chamber and the new brass was on the large side. About half wouldn't quite chamber. I was short on time, I had to be in the airport in 5 hours. I couldn't load 100 more shells.

So, I borrowed a 30-06 sizer from a buddy and tried to bump the shoulder back. It didn't move the 270 shoulder back quite enough. So, I cut a shim from an aluminum Diet Coke can that fit between the shellholder face and the rear of the casehead. Problem solved. Pushed enough of the shoulder back so each shell chambered just fine. Went hunting. The ammo was particularly accurate. I guessed the process had produced very straight ammo.
