[QUOTE="Roughwater, post: 1552950, member: 33915"] Well I went out early this am and fired one round using new brass and 88gn of 8831 with a Federal 215M primer. I got a velocity of 3424. Previously I had a velocity of 3470 with the same load except I had used a Winchester Magnum primer. Again this was using the Hammer hunter 43 gn .284 bullet. Unfortunately there was still a very noticeable ejector mark. So much for the lapping theory but I'm not sure either if I was really lapping as I was mostly using scratch remover so not much grit to it if any. I couldn't find the Flitz I once had. Here are my test results from this morning: 86 grains of 8133 showed no visible marks. Velocity was 3332 86.4 gn got me 3436 FPS with visible but light mark 86.3 gb got me 3410 FPS with barely visible mark These were all using Winchester magnum primers and 8133. Since I want to use my cases multiple times if possible I will at least for now downgrade my load if using 8133 to the 86.3 gn load.
