I have a hot cor 250 and an old 225 ballistic tip, that looks an awful lot like the accubond, that I can bag up and send you.

Sorry it took so long to get back. Finally got to the range over the weekend. Loaded up some Hornady brass with the sizing die 1/8 of a turn off the shellholder, no more flattened primers (or backing out). Thank-you guys for all your help!!! Now for round 2. Accuracy is not there. About 2"-2.5"...
Those Hornady cases have never been sized. They did not have primer push back or flatteneing either. Will measure to see if there is a difference. When i adjust the die 1/8 turn from the shellholder leaves a small "bump" on the neck just above the shoulder. Thank you guys so much for your info!
So I tried again. Used lay-out die to track my progress with partial sizing. By the time the neck was sized the die was touching the shell holder. Case fit my chamber from start to finish without resistance. Also, when I tumbled my brass (Hornady once-fired in my rifle) I noticed a distortion...
Awesome! Thank-You!! Do I need to do anything with the expander/decapper to partial size? As far as the other rounds, do I need to pull the bullets and powder and scrap the brass?
It is a Ruger Hawkeye SS .35 Whelen
225 gr. Nosler BT
RL-15 powder
Rem. cases trimmed to 2.494

I started with 20 pieces of once fired brass. Tumbled, full length resized, trimmed to max case length. Loaded 5 each with 55, 55.5, 56, 56.5 grains...
