[QUOTE="AKdan, post: 1142126, member: 83800"] Hi all. I was out shooting my 308 win the other day with a buddy and had the strangest thing happen. After about 8 rounds (over 10-15 min) i got sudden severe over pressure signs on multiple rounds( significant ejector marks, stiff bolt lift, etc). This is a load that has never shown pressure signs(400+ down the tube) actually quite below where i saw pressure signs during development. I double weigh all charges on 2 scales. All rounds were loaded at the same time. I measure all loads for seat depth. I have shot long strings of this load without issue. I clean the rifle about every 50-60 shots. Seems to like this range. I am loading the berger 185 VLD with 42 gr Varget. Have any of you seen this before this is a new one for me. Temps were in the 30's. Thanks, Dan [/QUOTE]
