Ok guys,....Boyd,..338-378,.....everyone else,...what are you getting? I got 4 firings with wayyyy under max load,..as did two other individuals who own them as well. I felt the primers go in just a bit too easy on the 5th loading,..but thought I would try them again anyway. The first one,...loaded with 88gr of RL25 and a SMK 200gr,...I had to smack the bolt open. I know the bullet was seated out to far from the pressure of closing the bolt,..but I don't think the charge was too much. I think the case was just expanded too much. The last time around,...It was all I could do to get them out of the Wilson seater die,....and even if I body size them,...the primer pockets pretty much dictate that being a waste of time.
Is there something I have missed? I DO NOT shoot max loads unless the gun likes them,...which I can't tell because I have gotten .250" groups from H1000 and RL25 thus far,..and much before max charges,...so it's not my powder.
Anyone?
