If the factory rounds chamber and you are confident that everything is safe (remove bolt and look through the chamber), try firing a single round (or maybe 2 or 3) and compare the cases. There were many who "improved" the Krag case over the years, not just Ackley.
Look carefully at the markings on your FL die. Might it be a Neck Sizing die? Make sure you have the right shell holder. Make some careful measurements of the fired & resized cases. If you are like me and have one of those ancient presses (Pacific or Herters) that Mr. Hosmer described, RCBS sells an adapter or replacement kit ($12.50, IIRC) that brings it up to date, +/-. |
