[QUOTE="tdot, post: 1781036, member: 91330"] For my use, it was nothing to do with not being able to stay within pressure. I could only find small primer Lapua brass for a Rem 260 I'd just bought used. The builder of the rifle had sent one piece of fired brass with it. From inspecting that brass, it was pretty obvious the firing pin needed to be bushed. I didnt have time to send the bolt away to a Smith to do that work before hunting season. So from a little research on the interwebs my safest options were thicker cup or staying with a large rifle primer brass. I found the latter, before I'd fully researched the issue with cup thickness and I've never looked at the issue again. [/QUOTE]
