[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 906503, member: 13632"] Two things are still sticking in my mind, don't know if they'd relate but the couple times I've seen a very similar thing happen was when we loaded a couple different bullets and the fouling from the two bullets did not get along and all of the sudden we started having very odd things going, they were proven loads and we saw them starting to shoot high then dropped a primer, then bullets started coming apart then it would seem OK then drop a primer. Cleaned it out and never shot different bullets jackets without cleaning and it's rocking on. The other thing is when I was going to nitride a barrel the smith I talked to who had done a number of them advised not to fire anything from WSM size up before nitriding, he lightly laps the throat to take the edges and machine marks out then sends them in. I know Lawton used the same company for years and they were lapped, chambered and Nitrided with no firing as well. [/QUOTE]
