I had a Savage 7 mag for a long time that was a hammer. I was using original Barnes X at the time. I had the 160 loaded to around 2900. I bought another Savage and that barrel/chamber? was so much tighter, that I had to back off the load by five grains to quit seeing pressure signs. I went back to Interlocks and Partitions, with the load tailored to the newer rifle and never had another issue.


You did not "seen" anything, you "saw" it.
A "creek" has water in it, a "crick" is what you get in your neck.
Liberals with guns are nothing but hypocrites.
