[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 470677, member: 2736"] +1 Some of the guys shoot rifles that are "Tight Necked" and do OK with careful reloading. I consider a OD of .003 larger after firing to be minimum. On low pressure loads you can get away with .002 (.001 on each side) With big cases that typically are high pressure I want .004 (.002 each side) for safe high pressure velocity loads. A simple way to verify if this is the problem is to pull the bullet on a couple of the custom loads keeping the powder charge to replace after turning the necks down a couple of thousandths. Fire one and see if it makes a difference. If it does you will know where the problem is and what you have o do. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
