[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2812119, member: 115658"] The 65 PRC. I expect this to occur, but it is of little consequence. A hot cartridge with pressures well over 60K psi to 63K psi (some data has pressures up to 65K psi). Cartridge head measures .532 and case body is same. Cartridge base & body is .222 square inches, with high pressures of 63K psi plus increased thrust is exerted on bolt face causing more resistance to opening bolt. Upon multiple firings brass head expands with increased resistance to extraction, like "click" upon completion of primary extraction (just popped loose). Small base dies for 6.5 PRC? [/QUOTE]
