orig,
The GBO reamer seems to make long throats in the Maxi. I stopped reaming when I could chamber a 357 Maxi case w/o the bullet (extractor removed). I stopped before the reamer ever touched the rim cut. If I seat the Hornady 180 HP/XTP or Speer 180 SP till the bullet touches the rifling there is almost no bullet left in the case.

Why be difficult, when with a little extra effort you can be impossible?
