[QUOTE="Havard, post: 1559124, member: 107374"] hello... I found several threads about compressed and got about 1/2 of the answers I was after, but just to clear my own mind... I recently trimmed .308 brass to spec, and started at mid weight charge working up to max as per the Barnes manual with 168gr TTSX. The midweight charge, seated COAL as per the manual, gave indications of slight compression and all the way up to max was no doubt compressed. I didn’t notice push back on the bullet when I measured CBTO, so I left it alone with the intent of seating again. Question is, have any of you ran into this before? If so, any issues when firing? Case trim - 2.005 Federal 210M Varget FL resized Barnes once fired brass (reused factory cases after once firing) Thanks [/QUOTE]
