Thread: 7mm PRC Factory Hornady ammo issue

Let everything cool down and not an issue. Heat things up and back to pressure signs.

I thought it was ammo issues until I clicked as the cause.

Interesting I will pay more attention next time, I always touch barrel and can to check they not too warm before firing another shot
