Re: Soot on case necks

I don't shoot that cartridge but after taking a quick look at hodgdon's site, I'd guess low pressure. You have to see how the primers look, how the bolt opens and so on to be a little more sure. Are you using published load data???

"I think I read somewhere that this was low pressure and the neck was not sealing against the chamber allowing the soot to come out more than normal. Gun ok to fie?"

Yes. And yes.

Hornady manual for charge but other manuals have it at higher loads.
