[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 52299, member: 8947"] Are you experiencing any difficulties chambering the case that have been fired more then 5 times? how are you sizing the cases? Have you measured the muzzle vel to compare new vs old cases? How large are the cases about 1/8" in front of the extractor groove, new vs old? More info might give light to the problem. I suspect that the chamber is a little large at the base and the cases are growing to fit. After a few firings, the brass is work hardening and not releasing from the chamber walls. headspace will also play a role in this. Is this a factory rifle? Answers to the questions above will help solve your problem. if you can, try some other brass like Fed Gold medal, and see if you have the same problem. Good luck... Jerry [/QUOTE]
