[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 759474, member: 17844"] I think you start load is too high at 3000 fps with 160 grain bullet The only reason is is ejecting is the larger expansion of the case from new to chamber size so you get some spring back. When you then reload the case there is no spring back as the movement is slight. Max velocity for a 160 grain should be about 2800 to 2900 fps tops at 62200 psi . Try slower powder or backing off the load a bit . [/QUOTE]
