[QUOTE="azsugarbear, post: 1208202, member: 4809"] If your rifle has a muzzle brake, remove it before fire-forming. TP has fibers that will get caught in the gills of your brake. They hit with such velocity that they can bend the gills or ports in your brake. If you decide to form with bullets, I have had the best luck with a slightly reduced load with the bullet just into the lands. This seems to keep the brass from slamming back into the bolt head and gives me a more uniform shape with the new wildcat. [/QUOTE]
