[QUOTE="eshorebwhntr, post: 1212464, member: 17112"] I'm not familiar with Bertram but you might want to do a rudimentary internal case volume measurement on your original brass vs the Bertram. If it has less internal volume you might have to decrease your load substantially to get down in a range that doesn't lock your chamber every time. I personally don't think that the neck turning alone will alleviate your pressure problems if it's locking the bolt now. Retumbo or something in the next slower burn category than H1000 might help you maintain velocity and get the pressure down. I would think with the 6.5 STW being pretty overbore it would work well.
