[QUOTE="Ridge Runner, post: 169331, member: 951"] what fireform loads do y'all use? I blew another primer today and got a face full of powder residue, this makes 2 just fireforming. The first one broke the extractor. I'm using the reccomended load from the guy who built the action, (necked for a crush fit, 54 gr H-4831/140 gr bullet) I tried a batch with cornmeal but the necks end up thicker with that method. Is there a way I can tell if I'm under pressure or over? would mid-level 6.5/06 loads be ok to fireform with? anybody got any ideas? RR [/QUOTE]
