[QUOTE="Deleted member 48126, post: 2330735"] OP, we were shooting factory loaded Norma 130 grain match, small primer, 6.5 CM out of my buddies Gradeous on a defiance action last year. His 3rd shot, of the 20 rounds, blew up his trigger tech. Rifle was fine but we immediately dropped it off at a local smith who did a once over and installed a new trigger. We saw the first shots fired the brass showed signs of over pressure. We just chalked it up to small rifle primers and switched to Hornady ELDMs. But that was January 2021. Anyway, my point is that this maybe a long term, reoccurring issue with Norma ammo. Our brass looked similar to yours. With a sample size of two, I don’t want to make an hard rule that Norma is bad ammo though. [/QUOTE]
