[QUOTE="BigSkyGP, post: 458311, member: 28118"] Are you using old winchester ball powder, I hear it can get a little ripe with age. Is your firing pin still nicely hemispherical? +1 for short full length sizing, and or long chamber/excessive head space. Check head space issue, change powder and primer. I once loaded some ammo for an 18" barreled auto rifle, picked up another in the same caliber only 24" barrel. Many stuck cases, and fiddling with the load. I couldn't get the powder charge low enough, new powder by the way. Had to switch to a totally different powder. The powder was too much for the long barrel. [/QUOTE]
