brass headstamp?
are you annealing?
are you lubing the inside of the necks well enough - is it possible that your expander ball is pulling the shoulder back out due to a lack of lube there?
and
are you sure its a shoulder related issue - have you checked that the brass is being properly sized down at the base and you dont have a budge there thats causing the tough chambering?
is this once fired brass thats already been through your firearm? or brass from another source thats giving you fits?
a set of headspace gauges and a comparator body for your calipers should help you verify if your shoulder is moving back enough compared to your fired brass.

then add the bullet comparator bushings and you can also measure the CBTO for precision seating as well instead of using OAL.

I got the bullet one I will order the headspace one.. Reloading is addictive and I am one who has to have this and that.. I am out for every bit of accuracy out of my loads as I can..
