I started reloading in 1978, have loaded many, many thousands of rounds, a lot of which were for a Remington 760 in 270, never used SB dies, never had a problem, have never trimmed a case for that rifle, I do not have to use force to close mine loaded, if you have to use force either your die is adjusted incorrectly or you have a tight chamber and need a small base die. regardless of what you think NM is correct.

What is force?
You can close a bolt with minimal effort. A pump is more mass. Operate a rifle with less pressure restraints, and it can world apart, from a higher pressure round.
What do I consider force, and you?
I don't think I am applyig force that is excessive. But maybe you and the other guy want to get in my panties and look around.
I can't tell the difference between factory remington ammo, full length sizing, or neck sizing for different rifle.
I am not saying it is BS, I would give it try if I came across one, but I am not bowing down either.
Today was not the first time I handled a rifle, nor my penis, which is what we can compare next.

Ignore lists are for chicks and millenials, who need a safe place.
All because I have my own opinion.
As with liberals, it is ok to protest and have an opinion, as long as it is their's. But if someone disagrees, they must be stopped.

Atleast I don't lie about needing a safe place.
What is my attitude??
I said I would try it, if I ever came across some small base dies, but I had my doubts.
This bothers you so much you need a safe place. Please give me a list of members I am not to quetion, and topics, I am not allowed have an opinion.
But when a member wants to get in my panties, I back off, and question them.

After reading this sad thread I got out my 30-06 pump and played around a bit.
With an empty chamber the rifle would dry fire no matter how gently I closed the slide. With a Remington factory round the rifle would fire no matter how gently I closed the slide. However, with handloaded rounds using a standard die the rifle was inconsistent and would not always fire if the slide was closed gently.
My micrometer shows a small difference in the diameter of the case near the base between the handloaded round and the factory round. Either a small base die that returns the case to original factory specs or extra snap upon closing looks like the solution.
As an aside, I have read many posts by both Ridgerunner and NoMercy over the years. Although we may not always agree on all matters I have never found either of them to lack knowledge and experience when it comes to rifles and handloading, nor have I noticed them to be fellows that initiate friction.

But when guys are cock sure of themselves, I start to doubt them, or tune them out.
Its been awhile I don't thing the issue is it not firing. It is the round not going off. Been along time, I don't recall a dented primer, but didn't look. One time it happened, I was actually able to rack it out and back in, with a doe about 30 yards, not in a blind. Took awhile.
