[QUOTE="baldhunter, post: 2550100, member: 11853"] Seat the bullets just a little deeper and they will be easier to pull.I pulled the bullets on some 300WSM cartridges that I had loaded about ten years ago.I never had any split necks with this cartridge.I lost about half the cases due to the necks splitting when I pulled the bullets.I guess the cases had been fired several time and the brass was starting to harden.Over the years,the harden brass holding the bullet under tension,apparently becomes very brittle.I don't think softer brass would have split like these cases did.I guess this also makes a good case to anneal your brass too.
