[QUOTE="Idaho Sawyer, post: 987893, member: 22006"] Got the new Kreiger broke in and did an initial pressure test increasing from 97-103 grs. of RL 33. Saw slight ejector marks at 103 and a node at 101. The gun in shooting lights out, good es, easy bolt lift and no pressure signs. Fast forward to the past few 2 shooting sessions, I have seen ejector marks showing up and this morning fired twice, ejector marks and heavy bolt lift on 1st round, 2nd round struck 1 moa higher than my normal dope and HEAVY bolt lift. these are the details -338 EDGE, trued Remmy, 101 gr rl33, CCI 250, berger 300's, Nosler Brass -this is the 3rd round of firings on the brass (shots 101 and 102 from this AM are the only ones fired on the 3rd round) -102 rounds the tube, intial barrel break in cleaning and then cleaned at round 75, I always use Bore Tec Eliminator -Same lot of powder, bullets and primers -shooting conditions have been within 35-55 degrees during every outing I did a search and I am going to aggressively clean it tonight (maybe carbon/copper build up)?? Other than that any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. thanks, Brent [/QUOTE]
