[QUOTE="JDD, post: 1641827, member: 102774"] from my own personal experience. In 2005 I traveled to Namibia on a plains game hunt, were I shot 14 animals. I was hunting with a 375 h+h and a 416 rem mag . Both loaded with barnes tsx. Both rifles were tuned and function perfectly. A custom model 98 in the 416 and a Montana 1999 in 375. After harvesting a animal I would just top off the magazine. After about 3 days I noted problems with function in both rifles. The rounds at the bottom of the stack were exposed to 3 or 4 firings possible one or two more. They were growing in OAL due to repeated exposer to recoil. They grew enough to interfere with feeding.The dies were standard redding dies. a almost non existent crimp was used , case neck tension exceeded .002. You may take a sip now if you care to Its your choice. [/QUOTE]
