[QUOTE="BearDog, post: 1943424, member: 41680"] Let me throw another one at the hive. I made a mistake referring to my measurements earlier. My average Chamber length was 2.890 (case length to ogive). I loaded all my rounds to 2.850 (ogive). That would give me .040 off lands...not the .005 like I had thought. Guess that’s why you keep notes. I’ve added a photo with the primers and charges. You can see there is some flattening, I just don’t really believe that it is significant enough that I should be concerned with the pressure at 70grains. Again this yielded the best group at about .5moa. Could slight flattening be an indication of excessive head space? It’s still closer to the lands than factory ammo, but with higher charge, I’m wondering if this could be a culprit to the stuck case at 70.5g, and if my 70g load, which shot great and had no extraction issues, should even be a concern at all?
