    I have found when full length sizing size a case, try it, and If further adjustment is needed select another case, make the adjustment, try this case.
    What I found is that if using the same case and making small adjustments till satisfactory bolt closure the next case sized ends up oversized.
    I think this is caused by hysteresis/springback with small adjustments.

    However, I now anneal every firing so the above may hold hold true anymore.
