[QUOTE="misterc01, post: 1992307, member: 109160"] I was shooting last weekend, and I had three cases split when firing that look similar. I was using Federal GMM .308 cases with Sierra 168g TMKs. They were on thier third reload with no signs on examination when initially prepping them. Never any pressure signs using 46g Alliant 2000-MR Pro. Thoughts on why they are splitting? I started to rpelacce them with once-fired winchester cases, but all the necks on them seem to have thickness varying from .013 - .014. inches, so not sure I want to try and turn the necks any thinnner. Thinking I might be better off jsut chucking them all (about 150 cases) and just get some Lapua or Perterson and start over. Suggestions? [/QUOTE]
