[QUOTE="GLTaylor, post: 2555954, member: 111593"] Just curious. Are you forming AI brass from standard brass? Also, even if just firing to form to your chamber - 2 things: Some of your pressure is being used to form your brass to it's new dimensions (whether AI or not) in the first/second firing. After forming to your chamber, subsequent firings may show more pressure as indicated above. Donuts are real and can be formed in the firing process. I've also had to turn Peterson brass due to slightly thicker necks (above comments). In one wildcat (25/284), i had to inside ream to remove donuts that formed (test as recommended above). Keep us posted. [/QUOTE]
