[QUOTE="fguffey, post: 1860901, member: 113511"] There was this famous reloader that claimed he fired a 308W case 43 times with max loads without having any effect on the case. I asked about the weight of the case when he started and the weight when of the case when he finished; he did not have a clue. You are annealing and then starting over but now I find you are using minimum loads. And then there is the shooter that claimed his primer pocket diameter reduces when fired; he claimed it was possible because of the convex and or concave in the case head. I have case heads that expanded in diameter by .010" with one firing. I could have measured the primer pocket, I could have measured the diameter of the flash hole and I could have measured the thickness of the case head; but it does not take me that long to look at it.
