[QUOTE="Johnboy, post: 528439, member: 20409"] trust me its not the powder at all.the powder would crush before the case would buldge. now that I have just typed up something and then removeing it after I just read your post again this is what I think is happening to you. you are useing alot of powder in your loads. ( I think )will have to look at Quick load to really find out for ya.but if I am right the bullet is being pushed out after you seat the bullet on TOP of the powder.this will sometimes happen on a compressed load.but you can tell by measureing the load again after you have loaded a few.and with you seatting the bullet just .002 of the lands its then pushed out fare enough to give you a hard time chambering the bullet. you may want to look into getting a neck sizeing die say a Lee collet.they really work great when you get the hang of it. now to your other question.yes adding or takeing powder from a load will cause that to happen.thats why we or alot of use use the ladder test.this will help you out to find two different accuacy loads for that rifel your loading for.you end up with a low and high accuacy load.you have come up with a high load for your load.but useing the ladder test by loading in steps say .3 or .5 grains at a time. ( 42.0-42.3-43.6-42.9 and so on )this helps out alot.for me I do the three of each when test a powder.and use a long seated bullet say .010 off the lands for all the three lot powder loads.after that shoot at 300 and find out what shot the best.then load it up in a lot of five useing different lengths ( long and small ) will look at Quickload to see if am right.or maybe someone with a better idea can chime in to help. OK just took a looksee for ya.you are at the high end but still safe by Quickload.but it still may be the case of the bullel being pushed out by the load.are you cleaning all of the sizeing lub out of the necks?or your seatting die isn't adjusted right.maybe you are seatting the die up different from the other times. just seems to me that the seatting die is not adjusted like before and touching the case when you are seatting a bullet to just push the neck in to keep it from chambering.but keep going back and reading your post.and you say it will chamber with a seatted bullet with no powder.so I keep thinking on the pressure of the powder in the case is pushing the bullet out.for me too I will just have to keep a eye on your post or think a little more on it.hope things work out for ya.
