[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 2645490, member: 26077"] With the steps you have taken so far, my bet is powder is your issue. You also have a large number of variables that are well outside optimal ranges. I would start with 25 new brass, .003 neck tension, .004 min clearance on once fired brass. Bullets seated at least .04 off the lands. Work up a test load in batches of 5 per powder weight. Try a faster temp stable powder from Hodgdon that gives you at least a 95% case fill, same bullets, CCI 250 mag primers. My bet is you will find the ES tightens up a lot. [/QUOTE]
