I took a factory hornady round,I measured the headspace,it was .003 less than a fired round in this barrel.
Measured the outside neck on the factory round it was .253
When I chambered the round the bolt handle had a little resistance.
Fired the round and it ejected very good.
Measured outside of fired neck .252

Everything I measure on my reloads confirms they should work just like the factory measurements

Measure your reloads at the .200 line and measure the just fired factory load at the same place. Are they identical?

At the shoulder below the neck?the reloads measure the same as factory

I think your problem is at the case head not the on the shoulder or your neck. I think what bolt fluter mentions above, is to measure .200" in front of rim and the same on a new piece of brass both Lapua cases of course. Your sizing die does not size this area but a small base die might help.

Ok,factory round measures .4645
Reload .464
Fired shot .465

 

[josebd]

Measured with micrometer

 

[boltfluter]

So, will the fired factory round chamber ok? Will your reloaded case chamber ok?

Paul

 

[josebd]

The fired factory rounds chambers with a little resistance, ejects good.
Reload chambers with less resistance than the fired round,ejects good.
The round I fired yesterday, bolt closes with some resistance, but wont eject?

 

[josebd]

The fired round that wont eject measures .465 .200 in front of rim

 

[josebd]

Small base die fixed it.it was tight right below shoulder,the die resized it more.

Thank you everybody, I know some of you guys suggested that,thank you
