[QUOTE="gonehuntingagain, post: 70172, member: 1206"] This seems to be a common problem with the Rem 700's. My gun and 4ked Horn's 308's do exactly the same thing that you are describing to the case after firing. Eventually there will be a line that you can feel on the inside of the case around the base (where you see the bulge). If you stick a unfolded paper slip down the inner wall of the case, you will feel a line that feels like a "thin spot" in the brass and may be indicative that a case-head separation will happen soon. I have no clue as to why this happens - it may not be just one thing, but a combination of variations that would occur in the mass-production process. [/QUOTE]
