IF your re-sized brass won't fit in the drop gauge.
Occasionally I have resized brass that won't fit/drop all the way into a Case case-length headspace Gauge! so I re-lube it and resize it again (with the die touching the shell holder) Still no go. I was talking with my shooting buddy and he said "IF you have a steel Case Length Headspace Gauge, turn the piece of brass around and wiggle it into the Case Length Headspace Gauge! the case base can pick up burs :(.
If you have an aluminum Case Length Headspace Gauge then use emery paper on the rim.
