[QUOTE="Stan Malinky, post: 2527996, member: 108698"] My favorite Elk gun (.25 MOA), with a new batch of reloads (Same Formula), shot 1.0 MOA and greater. Checked everything reshot same problem. I broke out the [B]Bore Scope[/B] to check for a build up in the chamber and did not notice anything out of the ordinary. For reference, I chambered one of the unprepped, decapped rounds I just shot to locate and look at the area around the chamber at the end of the neck. As I was looking at this area I accidently went into the Brass and noticed a carbon build up at the shoulder transition. I have been reloading for 30 years and was unaware of carbon build in the brass. The rounds were reloaded about 5 times and vibrated with walnut shells in between each reload. After discussion with range buddies, I now Tumble with SS Nails as they described them and the next reload was back on track. I will now weight all brass when new to determine a base line and track the weights with every reload. [/QUOTE]
