I have a borescope and didn't see elements of a carbon ring but I cleaned anyway. How would i clean the chamber neck? Same way but don't go into the barrel?
I feel like my head is going to explode...not having someone who taught me anything or having a local resource sucks. I figure everything out as problems come up, not knowing what is causing them or if anything I am doing is causing it. And it could be carbon in the chamber, sizer, seater, annealing, etc.
Bc the brass isn't thicker and it is a flare, I feel like it is something I am not doing correctly with sizing or seating, but those seem pretty straightforward. Theloaded rounds measure .317 and I am using a .314 bushing and expanding to .315 and getting .0025 shoulder bump. And the bushing is floating as I can hear it when I shake. The seater seems straightforward and I am getting the desired length with minimal runout during the whole process based on finished rounds...most are .002 or less with the rest being maybe .004 or less. Maybe I will try a .315 bushing...but at this point I am ready to pull hair out.
