[QUOTE="sdeering, post: 436794, member: 10986"] I really appreciate the help guys. I did pop the primer out and it doesn't look like the gas went up the side. The primers do feel a little loose going into the new brass but I don't see that relating. Maybe it does? With the once fired I can't measure any difference in primer pocket Dia. I do have 50 new rem brass I will be using in the future. How does Retumbo compare to H1000? I do have a pound of it to try. One thing I did is accurise the action. One step was th true the bolt face. I did measure the firing pin protrution after and it was .060 so I removed .005" from the end to get it back to .055" I din't bush the firing pin hole, it's still stock. I would think one would get a little cratering if this is a pressure problem. To me there is no cratering sign at all. Stephen Side note. Going elk hunting on opening day, Monday. Getting excited.
