  1. In hindsight you’re right. They were some loads that I had loaded of the original load but with 2 thou shoulder bump in cases. The load was developed by the gunsmith who built the rifle so you would have thought the load should have been some where near. I thought bumping the shoulder might have sorted the bolt lift issues. The bolt weld was not the best in first place by the looks of things. 

  2. I tried putting the loads it came with over the  chrono yesterday and the bolt nearly locked up solid. So much so that just as I got the bolt open the spiral staircaseing handle snapped off. Not impressed is not the word. 

  3. 24.8. And I  weighed one to check. He had only been using a neck die and cases were stiff to load so I bumped 10 back and loaded them but still a heavy bolt lift and flattened primers. Been looking at bits on Internet and they are saying use 20 tac loading or ruger with 2 grains less. Just after advice 

  4. Has anyone any loads max min for 39 grn using v133. I've bought a rifle that came with a load but it has heavy bolt lift and is showing pressure signs on cases. Was looking to work up my own load but can't find any in any of the manuals. Any help would be grand cheers
