[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 1842212, member: 101791"] Your left hand case the primer is creating not just fallen. Tell me you are little to hot. Need to check case length and bullet to lands, reduce powder some. If you are using the overall length from a manual you should be okay. You didn't say what Primes you are using> Large Rifle or Mag primers, if Mag Primers reduce powder charge by 10% then load one case increasing your powder weight back up at .3 of a grain per case. You know what your load was, so don't go back there again. Your pressure is over for sure, and need to check out the other items first, then if using mag primers reduce by 10% and work up until primer is flat not creator. My reloading manual (Nosler Reloading Guide 8) is calling max loads from 45 grains to 55 grains depending on what powder with Large Rifle Primers. If using larger rifle primes only then reduce by 5% . You can increase by .25 grains at a time. Knowing what I know you are over the loading manual max charge presently now. Not all rifles are the same. That why they have a starting point and max load point which are generally under what the rifle can handle. Then you can shot for groups and chronograph the loads.
