Any advice on this welcomed.
New brass, Lapua brass, it's a 6.5/55 SE, no issues
But, I have tried to reload once fired brass out of the rifle.
Problems, full length resized and trimmed to length and all within SAMMI specs.
Tried the unloaded brass and it chambers fine, bolt closes, no issues.
Then I load a bullet, bolt won't close, but new brass no issue.
So I'm thinking must be my RCBS die, borrowed my mates Redding, same issue.
It must be a shoulder issue but nothing I can see.
Maybe the tolerances of the Steyr are very tight?
I don't know, I'm at a complete loss
Cheers
Richard
