I've been reloading now of 10+ years and have never had any problems with my reloads. I loaded 50 of my pet loads for my 25-06 last year and have used about 30 of them so far with lots of dead critters to their credit. Sunday evening I shot a whitetail doe and again the the round performed flawlessly but. . . . .when I went to eject my case I couldn't lift the bolt. So I finally ended up putting some power to it and was able to lift the bolt and eject the case. The primer was gone and there was a large flat spot on the bottom of the case that erased where it was stamped 25-06.There are no cracks in the case and I can't see any other deformities. Any ideas what happened? Just a little nervous now, don't want an action blowing apart on me. Thanks in advance for any advice.
