[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 183148, member: 1521"] Sounds like the boltface was not square with the lugs. With this, partial excess HS and difficult bolt lift while wiping the now out of square caseheads. With early load development, I normally bring calipers along and watch for .0005" growth near the case heads(compared to any previous shot) as I go upward. Once I see this growth I know I've reached MY max. I back off From there, because the brass wouldn't last, and normally this is too much pressure anyway. Normally I get the primer flattening before this. Good Post. Great info [/QUOTE]
