    I also see some raised rims around the firing-pin indents where primer metal has tied to flow back along the firing pin. Definitely time to look for slightly reduced loads. There can be a price to...

    I'm just glad my licence doesn't expire until 2023. Hopefully they will have it sorted by then. Cheers Pete

    Definitely all good choices for the BLK. Add to that list 125sst's and 125 Speer TNT. The sst and nosler get the same results. The TNT are pretty frangible and great value for snotting varmints....
