I know on some rifles you can't chamber brass shot in another rifle, that's not my problem. This one is reaching signs of max pressure way earlier that the others and earlier than published max loads. That with a stuck case and hard bolt lift even on some factory ammo is what bothers me. Factory Hornady 140 SST = sticky bolt....Remington 140 corelokt no stick bolt.

As far as getting a load that works well in 3 different rifles, I've done that years ago with 3 different 270W rifles when both sons and myself were shooting the same calibers. It took some time getting there but I finally got one load to work. It wasn't perfect but all 3 rifles would group under 1", with one of my sons rifles always shooting a cloverleaf group.
