Not a .30-30 round, but rather the .25-20 Winchester. First round went downrange from the levermatic, but the second would not feed. Removed the rounds and found this. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/usOMV2T.jpg) Not crimped, figured that recoil wasn't significant. Apparently neck tension is? 
I am..........disturbed.

That is why I like Savage 99, no need to crimp! ;-)

Not crimped, figured that recoil wasn't significant. Apparently neck tension is? Holy cow! Some of that.25-20 brass is pretty thin, gotta wonder if it didn’t squeeze down enough. Not such an issue now that we’re usually making them from.32-20’s. I always put just the least little bit of crimp on.25-20’s.
