If you spin the sizing die down to the shell holder and give it an 1/8th turn more, you'll likely buy a lot more brass due to case separation ...

Yep, adjust your sizing die for minimal shoulder set-back and you are much better off. I generally bump the shoulder back about .003" with my magnums, since they are strictly hunting cartridges. Especially the 300WBY.
