[QUOTE="Prairie Dog50, post: 458223, member: 29069"] I am currently working up a load for my dads savage model 12fv, chambered in .22-250. The gun is extremely accurate, on multiple trips with variety of loads .37 inch groups and smaller are very common. However the gun does have one problem, it keeps flatting and blowing out primers. I have tried reducing the loads in .5 grain increments, and this has not worked. I have triple checked to make sure that I am getting correct O.A.L. length measurements of the guns chamber. So after kicking around several ideas I think at this point I'm going to try seating the bullets deeper than what I normally do. Normally when testing ammunition in a rifle I always start at .010 of the lands, and until now I have not had a problem with it, and maybe this isn't why the primers are flatting out but it's the best I know to do at this point. Do any of you guys have a better idea???lightbulb [/QUOTE]
