[QUOTE="lazylabs, post: 174499, member: 6641"] What case are you using to fireform? I guess the important question is what is the correct trim length your reamer is setup for? The original Gibbs cartridges were all off the 30-06 case(2.494) the overall case length in the books I have list 2.500 for the gibbs. If your using 270 brass(2.540) and not trimming them before loading you may be crimping the bullet in the case in the throat of the chamber. How much powder were you using with the cornmeal method? Did the cases show taper at the end of the neck? [/QUOTE]
