[QUOTE="Catbrain, post: 2953866, member: 127536"] I only shot one of the barnes that I loaded. I thought I would test the other in the box that had the same brass but with speer conventional projectiles-- to see if it a brass problem. Seems like the sizing die is closing the neck down firther than needed when the expander blows most of that compression back out as the ram comes up. Seems like needless work hardening---- I will look at the redding type S you left the link for. seems suspicious that is the only brass I can ever remember ripping open like that. Never liked the idea of a solid copper bullet from the very onset of that invention. Too much to force down the throat. asking for trouble. If they had installed plastic bands to Engauge the rifling--- that would have seemed much better. Like artillery shells. [/QUOTE]
