Loading On The Edge- Reading Pressure Signs

[John Y Cannuck]

Sad to admit that I've seen examples of every one of those cases in my own handloads. And more.
Hopefully, I've learned something, like how to keep my fingers intact.
Ok, I've become a wuss.

Bet you look closer next time you pick up a case at the range.

It's funny how that little puff of smoke from the action and the missing primer can make a wus out of you ,or maybe it's the that makes you carefull.

GH, you really are a WUSS. Let's look at it CLEARLY!!!!

This is a hunter using a hunting cartridge so the last case you found IS the best load because.....

The case after firing will likely be ejected into the grass, who cares if the primer pocket is big. Wouldn't reload it anyways. You can still read the headstamp can't you so what's the big deal????

AND, since you have the case in your hands, it ejected without any case separation, etc. So must be SAFE in that rifle.

What more do you need to know??????

He has max'ed out his performance. Darwin would be proud...
