[QUOTE="hybridspecies, post: 2248350, member: 119219"] I just read an article explaining that lubrication in the chamber can result in flattened primers (and higher pressure) by reducing the friction between the case and chamber wall during firing, resulting in the case head being pushed back against the bolt face harder than it should. I left in some Boretech Eliminator when I cleaned it previously and forgot to swab clean before taking the rifle to the range so that may be playing a role. Just need to eliminate the OAL gauge (seating depth) as the source of the problem and then I can concentrate on the other factors. Thanks all. [/QUOTE]
