[QUOTE="freddiej, post: 1835536, member: 26227"] good news is your chamber is on the minimum side, good news, your excessive headspace seems to be at a minimum as well. bad news is the above means you need to lower your limit for excessive pressure. Measure a new case and a fired case. this will tell you how much larger your chamber is than you brass. this will tell you how much your brass expands each time you touch off a round. if it is a custom build, I would say it was on the shy side of 0.003" not the standard 0.005" to 0.007" this difference will make the cartridge higher pressure than normal SAAMI spec.
