I tried loading a bullet (Moyer's cast lead gas check 303 Brit 313 dia. 180 GR FP) into the case without primer/powder and the neck bulged on on side and was too tight. I then re-sized a case with the feeler guage with a whole in it for the pin and was able to seat a bullet evenly OK. I tried several and the rounds chamber OK with just a little tightness when opening and closing the bolt. I am still trying to determine if the necks need to be reamed/thinned as every once in a while some of them are tighter when removing as the bolt turns.
