    little help with 300 blackout load

    I got a stuck case and and had to disassemble my decapping die. Once I got everything back together I I finished my first round and noticed the shoulder was tapered a little more than a new remington round. Will this be an issue? The new round is on the left. My round is on the right.

    i dont know if case guages are out for this caliber yet, but if so I would pick one up, or, go to the range, point the rifle down range and chamber it. I dont load 300 blackout but if i have a round that looks odd or gives my reason to raise an eyebrow, i just mark it with a sharpie and test chamber it before I just load it and hope for the best

                When i form brass, I run it twice on my die. First pass looks like the factory, second pass looks like yours. The shoulder after the second pass is more pronounced.
