[QUOTE="LaHunter, post: 1789736, member: 54963"] What primers are you using? What type of priming tool are you using? When priming your brass, there should be a little resistance when seating the primer? Are you noticing this? also, you need to make sure the primer pockets are clean and the primers need to be fully seated. Also, after firing a round, have you notice your bolt is just a bit more difficult to open (sticky bolt)? This is a good indicator of being over pressure. Just some thoughts. Going above ‘book max loads’ is not uncommon. [/QUOTE]
