[QUOTE="rcoody, post: 1139533, member: 91090"] For me loose primer pockets are a definitely a sign of a hot load. If you are going to load them that hot then brass is the cost of doing business. Personally I have been there and done that. Unless it is for some special use (1000yrd targets or long range hunting) I prefer to drop down the load a little. Some guns like them hot though. I have never had a cracked neck and much of my brass has 20 firings or more on it. For my .308 hunting rifle I full length resize every time with a 0.015 shoulder bump. My standard load is 44gr varget and a Berger 168gr hybrid hunting. I also anneal every 5 firings. I only use Lapua brass. [/QUOTE]
