[QUOTE="Coyote_Hunter, post: 1700811, member: 110773"] I sincerely hope you are never testing handloads while we’re sharing a range. You may have been reloading for 40 years but you clearly haven’t been doing it safely. Let’s start with what you ‘know’, the maximum pressure limits for the .260 Rem and 6.5 CM. You say 60,191psi for the .260 and 63,091psi for the 6.5. Wrong. SAAMI specifies 60,000psi for the .260 Rem and 62,000 for the 6.5 CM. If you are blowing primers there are multiple possibilities including the most likely, headspace issues or excessive pressures. Since you’ve been doing this for years, I suspect the latter. But I agree with others, it sounds like you don't know what a blown primer is. [/QUOTE]
