Is something wrong?

DavidM.......................If they chamber easily and shoot and extract well, you may want to simply ignore this "problem".......FWB

They chamber easily but I haven't yet fired them to see if there is a change in impact or not. I still had some unfired brass left so I loaded them up first
 
Redding makes .458 Lott dies. Midway has them in stock.

Redding are my favority dies. But if you have only one rifle in this caliber, and hence don't need to extensively resize, simply back the resizing die off a little, tumble and clean brass, see if the unfired chamber easily, and proceed to load a moderate loading. Black powder cartridge shooters are familiar with loaded rounds that look like your initial example. Unless the situation is extreme, they often shoot just fine.......................FWB
 
Does this issue come up with the bottle neck hornady dies??

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.

Hi EGS

I read your thread with interest. Would you mind sending me that PDF? May I put it on my website?
