Re: Can you solve my reloading mystery? (w/pics)
I would like to know if your brass is getting all the way up into the dies.....if you have a tall shell holder your brass wont get all the way in there....measure your shell holders height (measure the height of the lip...not the tab that is slid into the ram...make sense?) it could be having some problems because the shoulder isnt getting bumped back....
Once you get it measured.....measure some of the other ones you have....use the shortest one you have and load a couple rounds up....
ONE THING TO ADD.....remember with a CUSTOM rifle you need to be careful handing out information about loads....ESPECIALLY without knowing the chamber dimensions....you should have requested a copy of the reamer print....this SHOULD come with every custom rifle in my opinion....along with notes...
Food for thought---the suggested powder charges on here would blow my rifle up....with 42.0gr of rl-15 Im getting almost 2800fps with a 175 SMK...yes mines a very tight chamber.....Just saying to know your equipment....and be careful....
