[QUOTE="Rflshootr, post: 1912656, member: 10284"] I'd take a closer look at those bottom 2 cases on the left. I don't know what the load was in those 2 pieces of brass, but it looks like they both have ejector marks next to the little triangle (round circles from brass flowing into the ejector cavity from too high a pressure).. One on the left side of the triangle and one on the right side of the triangle. If it is indeed injector marks, that load is too hot, regardless of what the primer looks like. Take a closer look at them and if it is indeed brass flow, that load is too hot. The top one even looks like it has a score mark through it where the brass was shaved off upon bolt opening. Be very cautious. And remember, as the weather gets hotter, pressures increase. Also in my opinion, you are doing your load development bassackwards. You should always find your seating depth of the bullet first, then tune the rest of the way with the powder. Unless you've already done that. [/QUOTE]
