[QUOTE="Buck Buster, post: 1815020, member: 99718"] That was what many of the 1000 shooters were after, more pressure to gain more speed, some of their loads were so hot they got very few reloads out of their brass, they wanted less wasted pressure, expanding the brass to conform to the chamber, they wanted it pushing the bullet! I never saw an issue at the 1000 yard range from rounds not chambering or getting stuck, that could probably happen if the guns were holding multiple rounds, but the guns then were single shots, just lay the shell in and close the bolt, and seat the bullet at the same time, every round is seated exactly the same ! Many of the guns magazines were filled with lead for added weight. I am talking strictly bench rest rifles. Perhaps they do it different today, but I am satisfied with the results and loads I have achieved, and I have no need or desire to change a thing. This debate comes around all the time, and it's the same as vehicles, some like any vehicle that operates and gets then to where they are going and never has issues, others like to have all the gadgets and latest features, and others like speed ! Guns and scopes and loads and ways of loading also are a persons choice, and solely theirs, and they should try different ways perhaps, but if they find a method they like and it works for them then by all means I'm not going to tell them to change the way they are doing it, and I will leave it at that !
