[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 138750, member: 10"] I have experienced this quite often using the ULD RBBT Wildcat bullets in my Allen Magnum and Allen Xpress rifles. It actually happens quite easily if the bullets are seated to hard into the lands. THe main reason, the throat angle, 1-30-00 degree matches up so well to the ogive of the ULD bullet that there is alot of contact area between the tapered lands and the bullets ogive. In a fresh clean barrel, you can seat the bullets to touch the lands with no problems at all. Shoot the rifle a bit and get some carbon fouling the origins of the lands and they will pull out often. For that reason, for my big game rifles I do not seat into the lands, hold them about 5 thou off. It can happen with any bullet if seated hard into the lands, as you say, thats a risk you take.
