[QUOTE="g0rd0, post: 866600, member: 44168"] a few questions like above how many fireings on the brass? was the brass that you used to expand the neck to 338 old or new? after you expanded the brass did you anneal it? can you get a led light into the chamber and have a look? It is possible that if the smith who installed the barrel may not have polished it and there may be ring in there sufficient enough to split the brass. A cheep way to check that is to load up a round coat it in soot or machanics blue chamber and fire, the brass will show any defects in the chamber [/QUOTE]
