I just worked up a load for a remington model 7 7-08. It was a starting load of 40 gr of rl15 and a 120 gr hornady v-max. I accidently trimed to brass to 2.020 (wich is too short I know it was a accident.)When using any realistc seating depth from 2.800 down to 2.650 the cartridge is hard to push into the chamber once it is extracted the bullet has had a small amount scraped of the base just in front of the case neck. The gun chambers factory ammo without problem.Is the problem the bullet ogive. any one have any ideas? by the way there was no crimp.
