[QUOTE="Carman, post: 596352, member: 40372"] CFVICKERS.....thanks for coming to my defense. I certainly don't claim to be an expert on reloading, but I am not stupid either so I app irate your comments. I think you are probably right on about my casing lengths. As I said, I trimmed them last night and I intend to load just a few back to my load I have been using all along and see if the problem persists or goes away. If it goes away, then I know to Tim the casings each time. I can also add that I had one box of reloads that were on their second time around and a box that had just been reloaded once. After having a couple of the twice loaded cartridges stick on me, I tried some of the once reloaded cartridges and only had the problem with 2 of the 4 that I fired. Once I realized that I was getting nowhere with the reloads, I grabbed a box of factory loads and finished playing for the day. Tikkamike....you are right about one thing, the factory has powders and bullets that we don't have access to, but they aren't magical. I never load over maximum recommended and I always start low and work up until I reach the best results for my shooting capabilities. The load I shot in the Ruger never failed so I had no reason to believe that it would do any differently in the Savage. [/QUOTE]
