[QUOTE="nitrousmudbogger, post: 616383, member: 30982"] Call Hornady their brass is **** and they should swap you out with new. Everyone keeps blaming our Semi auto for it and Hornady called me and we discussed it. When they started making 338 Lapua they went off of the original prints from the 80's. Their isnt enough material in the base of the cartridge. They are and were having a ton of complaints in our Bad News rifles and the savages and many more because the base swells so much in the chamber it gets stuck. They sent me a case for testing and the new lot is better. They sectioned some Fac Lapua brass and found it is much thicker in the base and copied it. I left the warning on our web site due to so much of the old brass out there no one knows which is which other than them. Our semi would just rip the rim right off and we would have to use a cleaning rod to knock it out [/QUOTE]
