[QUOTE="DaveB, post: 5886067, member: 5958"] Case neck split is nearly always overwork. I never crimp my centerfire bolt guns. I am nearly always at max recommended charge weight and very rarely at SAAMI overall length. Jump is bad for accuracy. Do not engage the lands keep to .007 or a bit more. Annealing is a very good way to extend case life. Good place to get once fired 308 brass of quality is brassmanbrass . I have 500 of their FC match grade 308 brass and so far extremely good results. I also have quite a few R-P brass but those seem to be extinct. My dislike of Hornady brass from here on If it is Hornady brass just toss it. Eyeball the primer holes. Hornady seems to like oblong holes slightly off center. [/QUOTE]
