[QUOTE="freddiej, post: 2092110, member: 26227"] the brass tells me there is something very wrong with that chamber. if this is the 5th loading and partial case head separation happens I would look into a case micrometer and find out what the heck is your head space length and lengthen you reloading die accordingly. the brass as it sits is scrap with the chamber being as long as it is.. I am guessing somewhere between 0.009" to 0.011". 0.012" it would have come apart. Best advice take the brass and the gun to a gunsmith and have him check the chamber and the brass stretch you are getting. [/QUOTE]
