While tackling the problem of finding the photo of the shortened bulge removing die, I tried an experiment.
As I said, I sold my 300 Weatherby loading equipment/brass but, I have the outer barrel of a 300 sizing die. I retrieved one of the few un-prepped cases I kept and full length sized it. I wanted to know if after resizing, would the case slide into the die all the way to the belt. It did not. The case stopped about .5" from the belt. I also have a few factory 300 rounds so I dropped one of those into the sizing die with the same result.
Why is this?
