If they would before, and you loaded by hand, IMHO, there's no way they wouldn't fit now. The wooden plunger could not possibly make the brass shell go oversized. Are you saying you can't now close the gun? I've reloaded many brass shells [ Magtech ] by hand or with a Mec reloader and never had your problem. I don't know what to say to help you out - but don't believe they need to be resized. Even after firing my shells, they never needed to be resized. What exactly is wrong - they won't start in the chambers or they won't go in all the way? When you tried them before reloading, did you try closing the gun with the shells in the chamber ? Maybe you have short chambers with a step and have to shorten the shells. I had a Parker 10 with 2 5/8 chambers that had a step - no forcing cone - so I had to use shells that length. Good luck, but I don't believe resizing is necessary if they fit before you reloaded them. Paul
