A case gauge can save you a lot of grief by checking your brass. Turn your FL die down 1/4 turn at a time and try chambering the resized case. I've had to do this with once fired brass that was fired in another rifle. Another thing you can try is running your brass through a 45acp carbide die to squeeze the base of the case at the web area.
