[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 446068, member: 2011"] I had that happen a couple of years ago after a long hike/stalk on an elk. Every thing was perfect and the result of the trigger brake was nothing but a click.:rolleyes: Reticle never moved from the POI. By the time I reloaded for the second attempt the wind went from near zero to 30+. Bullet did what it was supposed to, under that uncorrect for condition. Hit 18" to the right @ 430. I had to blow the top of his head off or miss cleanly. It worked out pretty well.:rolleyes: Pulled the bullet the correct amount of the right kind of powder came out. The primer was a federal 215. My trouble shooting indicated that I had used a small rifle primer push in the Lee tool instead of a large primer push rod. I did the same thing with some 300 Wby loads for a friend. It took him 7 tries to get his trophy antelope. I quit reloading for others about that time. [/QUOTE]
