Hard bolt pull?

[rsmithsr]

dirty sliding extractor can rub/drag as you pull back( sticking out from the bolt

The extractor is gonna have nothing to do with the bolt pulling back hard.

Google alex wheeler bullet seating depth and watch the video. That will show you waht this "click" is. That will at least give you a base to make your arguments off of.

OMG, the famous "click" appears on yet another thread.

If a case head swells so much that extraction is hard you have too hot a load or too soft brass.

It has nothing to do with the sizing BEFORE shooting. You can the bejesus out of a case and it still will grow to fit the chamber.

Doubt it ? Get some small base dies and use the same load and brass.

Yes a controlled feed extractor could.

As I said many pages ago, the click is the sound of primary extraction and sear reset ---- nothing to do w/size of case head.

" The world waits."

Not quite, you are waiting, no one else.
I just found another thread where a couple guys with knowledge explained it to you. You struggled in that post also.
How about if we let YZ 80 try a couple things and get back to us, him taking a simple measurement with a caliper will tell a story. I think you were the one accusing him of running over pressure loads, by making it to his 4th firing, I say he is no where close to pressure, as most experience this on the 3rd firing.
I am not sure why you feel compelled to come on a gun forum and try to exert dominance, your knowledge base is no greater than anyone's here.

YZ 80, I apologize for letting this get this far, try some suggestions one at a time and let us know what worked.

As Milo stated measure at the .200 line on fired and sized brass.

Hi Sherm, so we're talking a diameter measurement of the case with the caliper 2/10ths ahead of the extraction groove near the web, right?

I should add that all cases expanded to 1.506" fired and I was bumping to 1.504". I checked each case after the bump to see how it would chamber and they chambered fine as empty cases and as live rounds (I checked these outside).

No worries, Milo. It happens. Thanks for your input!

aprox .2 from the base

Thanks all. I'll get to the bench and make these measurements tomorrow and report back.

OR you could all go back and read Pet Loads on how to use case head measurement to evaluate pressure signs.

 

[rsmithsr]

lease DO NOT.
while a nice INDICATOR,
NOT SCIENCE.
brass has different harnesses...you do not KNOW what you are measuring.

Well except you are wrong. You can have a click even with the firing pin pulled from the bolt. Just the slight stick of something giving an interference in the chamber can give you the click at the end of primary extraction.

You seem pretty blind to learning anything new, too bad.

 

[Stiltsville]

Having forgotten more than you will ever know, I find you amusing.

There is no such thing as "chamber interference". Amusing all the "things" created by you youngsters that have never been mentioned in any text written by real handloading experts.

try new brass, not Gunwerks
