[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 508872, member: 13632"] I would put some tape on the back of one of the loaded cases and chamber it, adding tape till it will not chamber to see just where the shoulder is at. I do this all the time with mine to double check, I was having a similar issue with a Savage 270 WSM with new brass and found that I had about .013 head space on new cases. It would show pressure signs like very flat primer and bolt lift from the case slamming back in the chamber. [/QUOTE]
