    Larry Willis collet die

    If you in fact need one, I recommend using it every firing. If the bulge builds to a certain point then the collet will not slide over the bulge to size it down. I dislike belted cases and do not currently own any. Still have the Willis die, maybe time to sell to someone needing one.

    30-06 Competition Loads

    Explain How 7 PRC Has Tighter Tolerances VS 7 MM Rem Mag, without bashing any company

    Agree, as the referenced article covers the advantages of modern case design. Helps with factory ammo, reloads by experienced persons not so much. I have seen some really good shooting 7RM. No personal experience with 7 PRC yet.

    Hunting Rifle

    One solution could be to add a 20moa rail backwards on top of your rail. This would yield 0 moa. Would need short rings to keep scope low. I have a couple of these, I think one is made by Badger.

    plastic flow of primer material

    I had this exact issue with WLR a few years back. Turned me off of Winchester primers, will never use them again for anything except maybe a low pressure cartridge. Messed up a couple of my bolt faces just like yours. I used thousands of them when they were plated and never had a issue until...

    Got a bulge...

    I have been reloading for 50 years, making cases, wildcats more in early days than anything else. I have seen this often. It is happening in the sizing process. It is most notable when you are sizing several thousands like you are here. I see it when making cases not normally when reloading...
