[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 169376, member: 2736"] [b]Fire forming[/b] I recomend reduceing a standard load only 5% for fire forming And also always seat the bullet at least 50 thousandth,s or more Off the lands. Check the fired brass and see if a 6.5 bullet will go in the neck, If not necks may be to long (This will also cause over pressure with normal loads) or to thick and need thinning down. Try to find the problem before shooting any more rounds to prevent injury to your self or to the bolt face. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
