Bullet scraping during reloading

[VDW]

I'm loading a bunch of .30-06 for hunting season, and I'm having quite a bit of scraping while seating the bullets. This seems to be something new, as I haven't had a significant problem with it before, as long as the bullet was straight when seating. Now, I am getting constant scraping of the bullet as it is seated. There is a pile of copper shavings around the neck when I am done...I imagine this will destroy accuracy.

The cases are neck sized, and I even tried chamfering (is that the right term?) the inside of the case mouth, thinking maybe they were a little rough, but that didn't seem to help. I am loading 200gr Nosler Accubonds, and I am putting them in as straight as possible before seating them, then slowly raising the shell plate.

surprised nobody has tried to help you with this... measure everything - bullet, case mouth and see if something is not correct.

What's the brand of Your dies?

When I was doing more '06, the 150grs would do just fine.. if I moved up to doing 180-220grs, no matter what I would do, I always had a little copper scrapage.. Everything mic'ed out fine. Never could really figure out "why".. Never seemed to affect anything as far as I can remember..

I was useing Lee dies at the time..

ETA; Had one more thought,, How many times have you loaded the Brass? I did notice that when I started annealing the brass it didn't seem to happen as much..

Brand new Lee dies. Last night I loaded some of my many times fired brass and had no problems at all, but they've been trimmed before, too. The ones I was having problems with were brand new once fired Remington (cheap core-lokt), that were fired in a friend's rifle. They were still within spec, so I hadn't trimmed them. Maybe that's the problem?
