[QUOTE="sedancowboy, post: 1514860, member: 85874"] This is why I ask for more info in the beginning. I load for 3 270 WSMs and have since they came out. While 4064 is not ideal for the 270 WSM the mild load you were using in and of its self should have not caused you any problems. Nor is the 130 gr corelok again not the bullet I would chose but not your problem per say. I believe you have something else wrong and that is why I picked up on the 2 blown primers. Two things cause blown primers one is obiviously High pressure, I would say over 70,000 psi the other is bad or worn out brass. I would suggest you start over with new brass and run it into your sizer die enough to strighten up the necks seat a good primer and load a good slow powder, H4831, IMR, 4831. RL 26, With heavier bullets I use H1000, Retumbo, or RL 26. New primers should take some pressure to seat and stay that way if they get loose then you are running your load a little too hot. If time is limited then you could just shoot Factory for this season. I know that is not what you had planned on but it is not the end of the world. I want to also say do not get discouraged with this experience! Reloading and seeing your results on a target or killing your first animal with your own reloads is very rewarding and you will be hooked for life. Henry [/QUOTE]
