[QUOTE="Broz, post: 993144, member: 7503"] Paul, you may very well be 100% correct. Did you chronograph the wet loads? I ask because I observed these symptoms. Ejector marks, some brass transfer and light smear at ejector pin hole. Increased bolt lift that would be consistent with the above. Also higher impacts at distance. [B] I did not chronograph[/B], so my only proof of pressure increase was high impacts on proven loads and drops. In the end I felt it was bad at any rate. I seen obvious abuse to my rifle bolt and lugs that could change head space of the rifle. So, I choose to stay clear of this condition as much as possible. I should add this was with a rifle that was running inside most commonly shared data is for this caliber. A 338 Lapua with a 300 gr bullet and 2800 fps from a 28" barrel. Jeff [/QUOTE]
