[QUOTE="Halleywood, post: 968173, member: 74105"] I doing some load development in my 7mm STW with new Remington brass this morning and 2 of the 24 rounds fired had this happen to the case. I've never seen or heard of brass caving inward. My only thought is because it's new brass the shoulders were bumped a good 7 to 10 thousandths more than my fired cases measure. Could that shoulder bump cause gas to escape backwards and cave the brass? Should I throw them away? I was scared to shoot again after the first one but there was nothing in my chamber that would have caused it. [/QUOTE]
