[QUOTE="Whitey1, post: 1695000, member: 101916"] I have been waiting for someone else to have an issue like this. I have gotten to the point of considering a new barrel. Op, how difficult is the resizing of your fired brass? Reason I ask is I have a tight chambered and tight bored 7mm mag in a savage Lrh. It took me an embarrassingly long time to realize this. I was down to over 10 grains below (I believe it was 56.5) minimum charge weight with retumbo and 162s. Random primers blowing and found it doing over 3400 fps once I decided to purchase a chronograph. When I full length resized my brass the compression of the walls was almost non-existent but the neck of my brass seemed to flow forward towards the rifling and it would develop a curl in the mouth of the brass after a single firing. Do you noticed anything different in your resizing compared to other calibers or rifles? Like a difficult neck compression and expansion? Or even it hanging up on the way down over the neck expander?(Guess that only works if you re-oad for more than this one..) I am wondering if the reamer used to cut that chamber was exceptionally on the tight side too. [/QUOTE]
