I just started trying to form 6.5 Grendel from 7.62 Fiochi brass. I'm using Hornady dies and shell holder.
When I resize the brass has a small ring just above the extractor groove that still mic's out at the original size of 7.62.
I've checked shell holder, correct one. Adjusted the die all the way down to hit the shell holder. It looks like the brass is not going far enough into the die.
Anyone else have this problem?
I have been reloading since 1975. Load numerous pistol and rifle calibers and have formed several different wildcat cases over the years. But never had a problem like this that couldn't be solved by adjusting forming die.
Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
