[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1179996, member: 10755"] This statement is completely false! Headspace has NO bearing on pressure, if it is excessive, it is more likely to REDUCE pressure due to the extra space of expansion. There is ONE, and only ONE cause of head separation, and that is excessive headspace, either caused by the chamber, or the handloader pushing the shoulder back too far. No head separation I have ever seen showed signs of excessive pressure, primer pockets were still tight. Some cases had body dents, but that is to be expected when the gas is OUTSIDE the case.
