Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Setting your full length die to bump the shoulder.

I have been reloading rifle cartridges for 35 years and simply follow the full length sizing instructions on the dies which are all basically the same. Ram to top of press struck, Screw in die to touch top of shell holder, set 1/8-14 turn deeper.

I have had exactly 2 problems with not enough sizing. I do not understand all the fuss about "bumping" the shoulder.
