[QUOTE="4ked Horn, post: 66389, member: 11"] Thanks 3six. You hit on the reason I asked about the flash holes. I had a knoledgeable customer years ago that told me of this same problem with actually putting a small chamfer on the inside face of the flash hole. He claimed that he experienced this taking safe starting loads to almost unsafe pressures by this step alone. That dosen't mean it is conclusive but certainly worth the question. As a side note he also claimed that brass polishing fluid used in corn cob media caused all but the last 6 inches of rifling in his barrel to become abraded away. He believed that it loosened the powder residue from the inner walls of the case which in turn landed on the bore after each shot. This then laid down an abrasive surface for the following shot to bulldoze out while "Fire sanding" the bore on it's way. That last one sounded a little steep to me but he was an experienced loader and BR shooter. Who knows? [/QUOTE]
