[QUOTE="moosehunter, post: 23055, member: 528"] I'm going to have a go at it soon as I get my house work done. I just had another brain fart. What if brass is fired in a fairly tight chamber when the barrel is quite warm, therefore expanded. Now the barrel shrinks more than the brass does cause the linear coifficiant of thermal exp. for steel is higher than brass, being a harder metal. Now the brass is actually larger than the chamber.Make sense or am I having a 70's flashback? [/QUOTE]
