[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1991385, member: 33159"] Axl is dead on here. I have a Christensen in 338 Lapua and hit pressure early on some loads. A bullet would not fit down a fired Lapua brass case. Nosler cases didn’t have issues. I neck turned all my Lapua brass and the issue went away. Christensen rifles have tight chambers. I have the same issue with my 6.5-284 with a Savage action and Krieger barrel. Neck turned the Lapua brass and also had to buy a small base body die because any fired brass would not get sized enough down to the web area to allow me to chamber it. So, it’s not just Christensen chambers If you can get any RL23, buy some for it’s my go to powder for the 6.5-284 and 140 gr bullets. [/QUOTE]
