I got the Redding type S die for 223..
I went to bump the shoulder back 003.. Die down the whole way and no bump back..
I shaved about .003 off the shell holder and again the shoulder didn't get bumped back..
I looked between the shell holder and die as I raised the case into the die.. It stops and I have a large gap between shell holder and the die.. Hrmmm.
I had to loosen the rod assembly and to let the bushing float quite a bit so I could get the bump back I needed.. I am new to bushing dies and the directions I didn't read and set it up as a regular die pretty much.. Does this sound correct or did I miss a step or what should I do? Thanks all.. Dan
