    No. I will get my mate that reloads for me to check all of the brass after Christmas.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Post a picture of the base/head of your latest fired rounds.

    I would say you have been most likely using Winchester primers & they have been leaking through pin holes as previously posted many times.

    The plunger is stuck down by gas cutting & or bits of gas cut debris off the bolt face.

    Contact me for reloading components, brass, projectiles, powder, primers, etc
