What I meant was, that getting up to max loads raises heart rate and blood pressure - same as driving a fast car, a womans inner thigh, letters from IRD etc etc and should be avoided if suffering high BP

Bro grab some Norma as we discussed. Its good in the 270

That’s the plan

@rambo-6mmrem I learnt today that Federal primers are actually a few thou bigger in diameter than other brands, so maybe the primer pockets are made slightly bigger as well

Federal brass is junk. Bin it and get Norma

In the 7mm magnum you mean? Useing adi ar2225

Got out with norma brass in the 270 yesterday
All issues gone
Even tryed 0.5gn hotter with no issues

Besides slight primer Craters which just seems to be a thing with this rifle dose it with even mildest of loads
