[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 450660, member: 2736"] Heavy bolt lift, bright spots on the case head , flattened primers,Blown primers, split cases, pierced primers. crater around firing pin indentation on primer, ETC. If you look at a new unfired loaded case and one of the fired cases it is normal to see a little flatting of the primer , But normally the first signs of approaching pressure loads is the flattening of the primer. From there it only gets worse Factory loads are normally below maximum pressure so a fired factory case compared to one of your reloads can be used as a comparison. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
