matt2ace Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I am using a Lee U-die from George that I purchased atleast 2 years ago. I do get 'shaved' cases about 1 out of every 200 reloads. Since I am using once (or more) fired brass, I realized that the shaved cases where likely fired through a gun with a larger chamber diameter than typical. I have never had a shaved case with new brass or brass fired from my guns, even multiple reloads. It occurs mainly with stuff I pick up off the range. I can feel these cases as soon as I start sizing and just throw them in the trash. Do you size them with anything else first? I've loaded some seriously swollen cases, but I run them through the Dillon die first, and use a crapton of One Shot. I don't do anything prior to sizing with the U-die. Since I only get this in 1 out 200 cases or less, I never considered it a big enough problem to warrant additional working 'pre-sizing' them. I don't use any lube at this time, but will likely start based on posting from this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
