[QUOTE="wildcat westerner, post: 359105, member: 21361"] It seems to me that cartridges are limited by the brass cases they are made of, and some other intrinsic factors. Long Range benchrest shooters bush the firing pin holes in their bolts because apparently it allows for higher pressure loadings. I assume the firing pin is narrowed and the hole in the bolt is bushed to make it much tighter. Is there any practical experience out there with this expertise and what does it cost? Thanks in advance, Gene So [/QUOTE]
