    The case needs to be resized in order to have the proper tension to hold the bullet in place, other wise you could have problems with bullet set back.

      Concerning what the above said, you could neck size instead of FL.

        I hate to beat up my brass if I don’t have to but does the case need to be that little more resized to work properly in my gun?
        Sounds like your chamber checker gauge does not match your barrel's chamber.
        That being the case, don't use your chamber checker for checking ammo fit.
        Use the barrel instead.

        You can still use the chamber checker to measure how much you are moving the shoulder during re-sizing though.
