[QUOTE="LB, post: 84108, member: 2721"] It seems to me that there is a relationship between a tight necked chamber, and not so tight, but thickened necks caused by repeat firings. All things being equal, same load, (same reamer) but tight neck versus standard dimensions, the tight neck (chamber) should show more pressure signs? Whether this is achieved by tooling, or by thicker neck walls, the results could be the same. In other words, I have a rifle with a tight neck. A very safe published load is a hot load, in this rifle. You could say that every rifle is different, but I choose to believe that the flat primers are/were (mostly) due to the tight neck. Good hunting. LB [/QUOTE]
