[QUOTE="whatnext, post: 2704585, member: 110234"] I don’t know why people can’t read the thread. The OP said he’s using factory Hornady ammo which is soft brass to begin with. It’s not like he’s hot rodding, messing with seating depth, asking miracles of the “new” 6.5PRC. He got a carbon ring which is new to him. It was new to me when I started loading Retumbo in 28 Nosler (coincidentally or not in a CA Ridgeline along with lack of primary extraction). The ejector marks are a known common issue with dual ejector CA bolts and nothing more. CA is also known for lack of primary extraction which could be rearing its ugly head sooner than later because of the carbon ring. CA is also known for cutting their chambers too tight and that along with the whole 6.5 PRC reamer spec vs. brass and die debacle (look it up along with the fix Alex Wheeler made) but I didn’t even bring that up because he’s shooting factory ammo. The OP should get the carbon ring out and just know that when you start reloading for the caliber, there are issues many have dealt with and be prepared to do some research. [/QUOTE]
