[QUOTE="BobTail, post: 4206998, member: 3752"] [b]Re: Case head separation[/b] ANYONE who reloads needs to have the correct tools. Get yourself a Hornady Headspace tool and a decent set of calipers and learn to use the tool. Your rifle's chamber is probably NOT the problem and is within specs. Every chamber is different and guessing how far to adjust a resizing die by any other means is a recipe for trouble ....... as you have seen. The tool is inexpensive and will not only extend the life of your brass but will also prevent personal injury .... which you are very close to having. You can get the tool at midwayusa or brownells. It comes with detailed instructions and there are also youtube videos showing it's use. Or, you can continue to press your luck by guessing. [/QUOTE]
