I apologize if this has been asked before, but could not find any info here....
Rifle Headspace : 1.625" (308Win, bolt action)
Reloads : Shoulder pushed back to appx. 1.610" (let's say 13/1000" too far back) (IVI Brass,1F)
I am wondering if the brass can take it without separating ? I normally try to push the shoulder 2-3/1000 back, but these ones were bought and when I measured Headspace, approx. 35% were right around the 1.610" mark, while the rest was basically 2-5/1000" back.
Don't want to run the risk of damaging anything due to separation ? ... is it safe to fire ??
Thx
