Okay so i took y'alls advice and got a set of hornady headspace gauges for my 06. I found that my die was bumping the shoulder back just a hair under .009" i set my die to only bump it back .002".
If that was the case I was misunderstood, I said you do not need all that equipment. I said all those gages are nice, not necessary just nice. I suggested if you purchases the gages learn to use them, learn to use them as standards and transfers, it is OK to covet them to an extent but learn to use them.

You could have made a comparator, if you have a comparator you could have determined the difference in length between a fired and full length sized/minimum length case from the shoulder to the head of the case.

Bump? I believe .009" would be closer to wreck than bump.
