The problem is likely exactly what flyingagg describes. Conventional dies cannot size right above the belt in cases that are shot in z as different rifle. Only the Willis or Wilson? Die will fix this. I have run into this issue many times before with brass I have picked up
I received my Steiner scope yesterday and mounted it on a rifle today. This evening near dark I tested the following scopes against the Steiner Predator 4 2x10x42.
1) Swarovski 4x12x50 AV
