[QUOTE="IdahoSpud2, post: 1993304, member: 115018"] It was the exact same make, model, and caliber, but I’m sure you’re right that it would have been best. However I had already prepped all the cases before switching so it was too late. It opens fine. I shot 10 factory loads with nothing noticed, then 10 of my hand loads and only a couple did not have a noticeably hard pull on the bolt to extract. They chambered fine. Max pressure? From a slightly different chamber? If it was that latter I imagine I would have had difficulty chambering the round before firing? 2900 FPS would be fine if it liked the load, but it doesn’t. I was hoping I could find the next higher one instead of having to go lower. [/QUOTE]
