[QUOTE="tony d willIiams, post: 1688540, member: 108777"] I was out shooting with my son near Yuma testing grounds. We were using ammunition I had reloaded, and that we had used many times. A piece of brass was stuck, heavy bolt lift, primer partially pushed out. I didn't have a piece of brass with us, the cleaning rod didn't push it out. Got home, pushed it out and found the primer partially out, ejector damage on brass. Inspected my reloads and every item proper. Did a bunch of thinking, worrying and finally realized it was the loose nut behind the trigger. We, no not correct, I had left my ammunition in the sun, 118℉ ambient. I caused the over pressure by carelessness. I am more careful now and try not to overlook anything. Luckily nobody was injured and my rifle lived through with accuracy intact. [/QUOTE]
