[QUOTE="hawlejr, post: 2865547, member: 86290"] Load is 57 grs of Vihtavouri N160 behind various 165 grain bullets. It's middle of the road vs the Vih. loads on their site. There are no overt signs of pressure. The primers are not flattened at all, certainly no extractor marks stamped into the case heads. I just can't believe it's pressure. I'm just trying to use some older brass which has been fired several times in this rifle in a low-work type of reloading. Accuracy really is not my goal. It's practicing different positions, rapid recycling of the bold, shooting off sticks, etc. The loads are well with in 2 moa, so that's fine with me. They just don't extract, and that is a puzzlement. If I do FL size, they do work, but that entails lubing, cleaning, and all that messiness. At least I know how to do it, I have 3-400 30-06 cases in this category that I have relegated to "practice". [/QUOTE]
