When you are going after brass make sure you get good stuff. I have a 218 Bee and the SAAMI spec for rim thickness is .065. My winchester brass has a thickness of .055. I was at a gun show a while back and the Starline 32-20 brass had a thickness of .060.

So what I am trying to do is to get it to headspace on the shoulder, not much of a shoulder to work with. Maybe I should just spring for the Starline brass.

If I were you, I would take a caliper with me when shopping for brass.
