I have some rounds that were loaded for rifle a, the shoulder is not pushed back far enough to load in rifle b. I have a body die that I believe I can use to push the shoulder back without disassembly. There is nothing to impact the primer. Aside from getting the cartridge stuck in the case, any real risk? Can I run them through the body die as is?
