Klem,
I am new to loading for grendel, but have loaded pistol for about a year. In other words I realize I have a lot to learn still. Having said that I have run across an issue and hope you can help as I have read a lot of your posts and respect your knowledge. I had loaded some Grendel rounds for may AR, everything went well with them(in spec and cycled) even suppressed. My issue is I started to reload them again last night for another range session and they are sticking in my chamber when I hand cycle them. They pass the Go/no go gage I have and they dimensionally match the factory American eagle ammo. Except one dimension my horandy headspace gage shows factory ammo at 1.211 and my reload at 1.222. I cannot get my die to move the shoulder back more on this brass. Sorry for the long message. I can give more details of what I have tried but since it has not worked I thought they would not be important
