[QUOTE="jbs2014, post: 2075894, member: 94052"] What if the OP used the cream of wheat and red dot method? Could his cases be saved and the risk of a case head separation be eliminated? He may be able to get the brass to fire form to his chamber with less pressure. On a piece of hydraulically dimpled 375 CT brass I used 25 grains of Red Dot then filled the rest of the case up with cream of wheat and topped it with cotton set it off in my garage and it expanded the brass to my chamber dimensions. Im pretty sure that is way less pressure than 138 grains of H50BMG or 132 grains of Retumbo. 25 grains works for a .375 CT but may be too much for a 3006. Anyone know what the 3006 charge? [/QUOTE]
