[QUOTE="jimbires, post: 1293605, member: 11011"] I dip my bullet base in dry powder graphite before seating . I think this will help with this cold weld , or what ever it is that happens . I think I did have this happen . I had some ammo loaded that I wanted to pull apart because I was having brass falure issues . it must have been brittle brass . on the second fire a few of the necks were coming off in the rifle . I'd have to tip the rifle up to get the neck to fall out of the chamber . when I got around to pulling the bullets I had 2 that the necks were stuck to the bullet tight enough they pulled the neck off the brass case. you can see corrosion around the bullet base . I have no answer for this , but I don't think I've had any problems since . when I hear of this cold weld I wonder if it's this corrision issue I had .
