Thread: Excessive head spacing 7mm RM - can it still be used

@grandpamac may have some thoughts

That’s quite a big bump, potential problems are with that much it may throw shots (not group that well, only one way to find out) as excessive headspace can cause pressure issues, if you have access to a chronograph you could try a group and see if it shoots ok & the pressure isn’t excessive (High speeds, tight bolt lift, etc) if so use them and then bin the brass.

Forget using the ones loaded for a ladder test, the results could be meaningless.

Me, I’d pull the components, bin the brass and start again.
