[QUOTE="bushwackr, post: 926850, member: 77802"] for mudrunner2005 the manual calls for 72-76 gr of 7828. I went with 74gr and it just so happened that it was about -10deg f outside, thats why I am kinda baffled. This is the first time I have ever seen any issues with handloads , especially when the loads come from manuals. orwapitihunter, the rifle if factory new ,2 rounds down it. the only mark I can see on the brass is there looks like tool marks on the shoulder of the case, rings around it. the bolt lifts all the way up, because all I had to do is bump the bolt back with an open hand and it opened up. When I mic a case it is .515 in front of the belt, shrinks to .490 right at the shoulder. yes when I try to rechamber the fired brass it is hard to close and to extract [/QUOTE]
