A design flaw in the cartridge, After 2-3x firings, we get clickers, the base of case .200 above web doesn't size down enough for smooth extraction. The sizing die was blamed, but no, it's a chamber problem. So I rented an AW2 6.5 PRC reamer from a shooter on the Long-Range Only forum. I did the work and fired the ammo yesterday that gave me problems. Problem fixed 100%
 
I have a X bolt and I'm currently on load 5 on hornady brass as a whole. No issues. so maybe saying its a design flaw is a stretch, Or maybe some manufactures have fixed it? I have Hornady custom grade dies.
