[QUOTE="nmbarta, post: 1779597, member: 78438"] That can be a real pita. 168 bergers stick in my 280ai with nosler brass. I don't know why, but this combo is bad, it takes a few pounds of force I'd guess to break them loose and there is a very audible "click" when they do. These stuck bullets cause a border line dangerous over pressure situation in this rifle if I don't break them loose. (bright ejector marks, sticky bolt) I've had this happen in as little as 6 months, and it's a guarantee that they'll all be stuck in a year. I run 162 eld-x's in that rifle now and the problem doesn't seem as bad, but I also don't keep ammo around for very long anymore. If I come across a few rounds from last year, I'll seat them another .005 and use them for foulers. [/QUOTE]
