[QUOTE="Bitis Arietans, post: 1297988, member: 100628"] Good Day All... Got the Hornady Headspace Comparative Tool and I'm measuring the fire-formed cases (7 MM Rem Mag) Modified (lapped) a shell holder to get enough shoulder bump (.003") Cartridges chamber perfectly. BUT... After firing the bolt "sticks"; it requires quite a bit of force to "crack open". Once opened however, the spent cartridge chambers fine. Why is it so tight? I don't think its bullet seating...measuring .040" off lands. I never had this problem before. Please, any thoughts will be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
