This is interesting, I'm doing a Turk small thread in 35 also. I found a bunch of rem 200 corelocts at cabelas, & hornady brass some where.

Thank you all for your input. The brass in question was sent back to the manufacture who could not find anything wrong with it. I however disagreed with their conclusion, see the video if you want to know why. Other than our disagreement on the issue, I was pleased with their customer support.
I did solve the issue by making a .400 expander that basically removed the entire shoulder and then sized the case in a standard die. This give me enough shoulder that the case headspaces and fires without issue.
I have some of the first R-P .35 Whelen cases as well as 100 .280 Remington cases that were made with the case shoulder too far back.I suspect that is not uncommon with R-P brass.
The case I had an issue with were made by Hornady, Remington.
