[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1750938, member: 10755"] Have seen this myself several times. The soot below the shoulder is a dead giveaway that pressure was low. Interestingly, it too, was when using RE25 in several large capacity cartridges. The worst was my 25 Pronghorn, aka 25-300WSM. Soot would be evident all the way to the bolt face, even at 2gr under predicted max. Next worst was 7mmRUM I was working up loads for buddy, nearly every powder tried did it with start to middle loads. Anyway, increase the powder charge, with care, and the problem will stop. Cheers.
