[QUOTE="jsthntn247, post: 2444588, member: 14894"] My guess was it’s the limited bearing surface in the neck between the smaller diameter and drive bands on the absolutes. The primer strike causing the bullet to slide down the neck due to the slick neck lube and limited contact in the neck. I have foulers loaded with 130 Norma Diamond bullets. These bullets are jumping nearly .300. I have never gotten a hang fire with these or 156 Bergers (jumping .010) with identical loading procedures in this rifle. I always measure shoulder bump and measure every case. I also shot several thousand rounds with a Creedmoor tactical rifle in competitions and never got a hang fire in that rifle. All I know is when I shot this gun with no neck lube (considerable difference in seating force when loading) or with neck lube and a crimp I got no more hang fires. I’m definitely open to any suggestions. [/QUOTE]
