[QUOTE="tokatee, post: 2051628, member: 68834"] To the OP. I have had the same experiance with my custom, the 300 wsm. is my favorite cartridge, I have five different rifles in it. My first is a BLR. Browning, the next is a 700 sps.,then come a Mossberg 4x4, after that come my custom 700, 22" heavy fluted Krieger 9 1/2 twist,bedded Bell Carlson, have shot under 1/4" but still working with it, my last is a Savage ultra light, absolutely love it! To the problem you are having, I thought I could use so my brass in all my rifles, no way, the sps.and the Browning will, the Mossberg and Savage I have to run the brass through a small base then I'm ok and they shoot under 3/4" as does the sps. Now getting to the custom it will not use brass from any others with out problems, and the Smith told me a precision chamber will need it's own brass and I use the small base die with it. Now we have had problems with Federal brass being way soft but you should be able to reload the Myfactory brass that was shot only in that rifle though you will probably have loose primer pockets. Start with a lighter load and see what happens. [/QUOTE]
