[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 646034, member: 5302"] Well then, here some more Bart BS........ Example 1: One afternoon years ago, I fired 20 rounds of reloaded M118 7.62 NATO primed match cases with Sierra 190's seated. They didn't have the 44-gr. charge of IMR4320 in them; no powder at all. Bullets stayed in the case. And all their primers' heads remained flush with the case head identical to the rounds fired with a full powder charge. 'Twasn't I who loaded those rounds for the team. Example 2: There's a lot more peak pressure in a round loaded with a 20% reduced charge than no powder at all. Could that be why my excessively reduced loads had primers back out of the case after they were fired and empty primed cases with bullets seated had their primers still flush with the case head when they were fired? I've fired dozens of empty primed cases measuring shoulder setback from firing pin impact and none ended up with protruding primers. I think it's absurd for anyone who didn't observe my tests and experiences to claim they're BS. They don't have all the facts. They may just have high scores in the DIS games. Please explain how this can happen with a .308 Win. case and have its primer back out about 1-5/8ths inch if there's only a few thousandths inch in head clearance. [/QUOTE]
