[QUOTE="Nimrodmar10, post: 912842, member: 36369"] Brent Just reading your post, my first thought is that your gin likes new brass. Why, what's the difference? Case dimension. I would try sizing your fired brass in a full length die and loading it the same as your new brass loads. And the differences between the throats of your old rifle and your new one may be in the number of rounds fired. In an over bored gun like the 6.5-284, the throat will grow longer as it is eroded by hot gases. I've had a throat grow by over .25" in a 22-250 to the point that I had to switch to 60 gr. bullets to keep them in the case neck. I finally had the gun, a Remington 40X-BR rechambered to a 22 Cheetah to get rid of the throat erosion. I put a couple thousand more rounds through it before I finally rebarreled it. The barrel was just so accurate I didn't want toleit die. Keep at it. You know it will shoot. [/QUOTE]
