[QUOTE="WinMag4me, post: 2826565, member: 106911"] I had a pest on top of a power pole today I got the 17 hmr and tried to load a round (bolt action) I could not get it to chamber On inspection I found a fired brass in chamber The round I unsuccessfully tried to load was pressing into the stuck chamber brass I stopped and cleared the chamber and noticed the round I attempted to load pressed the bullet completely inside the shell I could see the bullet tip(barely) and powder in the cartridge Out of curiosity I orientated the barrel up and hand fed the cartridge into the barrel I fired at my pest about 65 yards away and it dropped as it always does So this makes me question all the time I spend on bullet seating depth I realize this is a 17 hmr but I could barely see the bullet as I had jammed the bullet inside the shell Any explanation?
