I've been having some sporadic problems with my .270 Win load chambering in my Winchester 700 CDLSF. I am getting an occasional (1 out of 10) round that will not chamber and actually gets stuck (along with the bolt). A carefully applied aluminum rod with very little pressure pushes the partially chambered round back out along with the bolt. Everything seems to check out. Cases are properly sized and trimmed, COAL is perfect, and the round (43.5G 4064 pushing a 130G Speer BTSP) is really accurate. I am shooting 5/8" groups at 100 yards and I'm not a great shot by any means and this is not a target rifle. Anyway, some of the old timers at the club suggested using a small base die set to shrink the case just enough for consistent chambering. I have read, however, that small base dies are NOT recommended for bold action rifles. Looking for advice from the NES reloading experts. What's my next move?
