[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 1944124, member: 5219"] I agree with others that you should use new brass. I didn't see anyone mentioning it so I will.... do you know the chamber dimensions? One time I was helping a friend who had a new barrel installed. The rifle was accurate but every so often it shot out of the group and it has some bolt lift resistance. Friend inquired about the chamber dimensions and we discovered that the most of the brass had a .001-.002" release! The reamer used a dimension that was not SAMMI! The occasional fliers had thicker case walls and not enough bullet release clearance causing pressure. Once all necks were turned the issue disappeared. [/QUOTE]
