[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 951890, member: 74902"] Oops sorry, if I was assuming anything. From your reply it is now obvious the issue is that you haven't read enough reloading manuals. The Berger manual does not cover pressure signs much at all. The Hornady manual does, in detail, on page 70. Also on page 23 they show a pic and explain how to measure case head (web) expansion. Hornady states that even ".0005" expansion in the area can be a sign of high pressure. They also state that a very accurate micrometer should be used for this measurement. A previous poster on this thread indicated that they measure the web for signs of pressure. From your reply, for more detail, from that poster, From your reply, I perceived that you did not know what a web was. And I don't think you did. So I suggested that you read more manuals. It is recommended by many that you read more than one reloading manual. I have several. Also I was not assuming that you had a Hornady manual. I was assuming, that if you didn't you would purchase and read it as I told you the instructions for what you were asking were in there. Good luck with your reloading. [/QUOTE]
