[QUOTE="azsugarbear, post: 538442, member: 4809"] Johnboy, I really appreciate you taking a stab at this. I hand weigh each charge before dumping it into the case. After yesterday's disappointment at the range, I cam home and pulled the bullets on the other two rounds loaded with 38.0 gr. of H4350. I re-weighed both charges: first on the Redding 10-10 balance beam scale, and then on an electronic scale. All four readings came back at 38.0 grains. Because I am experiencing pressure with several different powders, I don't think it is due to weighing or powder volume. I do like your idea of checking the necks! I had checked them for length, but not for thickness. At this point, I think I will pull all the bullets loaded for my tests and then resize them. After that, I will turn all the case necks down, reload a few and see if that makes any difference. It may not help - but it certainly won't hurt. After all, its just time spent. Thanks for the idea.
