[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2828514, member: 10755"] After reading some of your answers, I believe your headspace is wrong, too long, and suggest you stop shooting it with BULLETS and use a COW load and then measure everything again. Anytime a chamber is cut that requires fireforming, it should have .005” NEGATIVE HEADSPACE…your does not sound like it has. Even a very small false shoulder should allow for 0 headspace and ample impact on a primer. Something in your system is way off. Who chambered the barrel, what headspace gauge did they use? Cheers.
