[QUOTE="winchestermodel50, post: 863573, member: 72281"] Have you found a solution to your extraction problem? I bought a Remington 700 stainless BDL and have similar problems. I can fire factory loads and extract fine, but with both new Norma and Winchester brass, my reloads stick above the belt with reloads reduced as much as 5 grains below maximum. I have yet to load a Norma 7mm magnum load that extracts after firing without sticking. New Winchester brass will extract at 5 grains below maximum but it is shows pressure above the belt and at the primer. The Remington brass separated above the belt after the third reload. All loads show excessive pressure. My bullets are seated .020 off the lands and I am applying good pressure between my shell holder and resizing die. The neck of a loaded Norma case is .0005 greater than a factory Remington. The factory Remington ejects fine but has flattened primers so it is warm. I'm at a loss. Cases are trimmed and I am going to outside neck turn to see if that helps but it doesn't appear to be the problem. Could this gun have an excessively tight chamber or throat? [/QUOTE]
