[QUOTE="Gene, post: 507888, member: 7402"] That is a good answer. You are probably sizing the case back too far. Does this happen when you neck size only?? It appears to be powder blow back, caused by failure to seal the neck/shoulder area properly. If so, you are also creating excess headspace, and that could be dangerous. I keep necks clean by twisting them in a wad of 0000 steel wool. If neck sizing only does not solve this problem, have the headspace checked by your smith. [/QUOTE]
