[QUOTE="Chesterrose79, post: 2452954, member: 112897"] Some guns will also show pressure signs like extractor marks on the brass even at low pressure. Another way to check for pressure is to measure case head expansion if you are having troubles reading pressure. I won’t explain how to do this but a simple search on the internet will have plenty of hits. The long of the short of it is measure the case head before and after you fire it and see how much it expands. I think .005 thou expansion is the max. (Please correct me if I’m wrong)This will mean your over pressure. [/QUOTE]
