[QUOTE="fiftybmg, post: 1645647, member: 96316"] I have a chamber cast made from when I bought the rifle. The same place ahead of the belt on the chamber cast measure 0.511, the fired case measures 0.516 . From the belt to the case mouth measures 2.335, on the chamber cast 2.332, as near as my eyes can see. This is a point to point measurement, not a true length on the axis. I've been using the same batch of 150 Norma brass for three years, but I have not kept track of exactly which cases were fired how many times. I've recorded 40 loads in my log book. I've not had a single case head separation. I will take it to a gunsmith to verify the chamber. Thanks for the feedback. [/QUOTE]
