Don't know if this should go here or under gunsmithing but here goes.
A friend of mine has a 30-06 in a mauser action, don't know what kind, it won't chamber reloads. it will only chamber never fired brass. we have trimmed the case to spec and beyond but the bolt will never close it is very tight.
Using the same dies my brother-in-law's rem. 700 has no problem chambering the reloads.
Could the dies be worn out? I don't know how this could be because the brass is so much softer than the dies but ???.
Could the chamber specs be out on the mauser maybe?
Any help would be great
