In a dusty and rugged part of San Francisco, the hard rock, brawlers, and hippies capital of the 1960s, 'Poet' was a restless young man working a dead end job at a gas station. Already a seasoned street fighter, his temper was short, made even more volatile by crusty scalawags who kept testing him. Every interaction could end up with him dealing out an asswhooping and Poet knew that his time at this job would be short. One day, a band of Hells Angels riders stopped by the gas station. For Poet, nothing was more alluring than being a member of one of the largest and most notorious outlaw motorcycle clubs in the country, and he made up his mind as he took in the acrid fumes and the growling thunder of Harleys idling around him. One thing led to another and Poet was invited to become a hangaround of the club, and then a patch-rocking prospect. However, as Poet's rough and tumble nature carried him up through the ranks of the club, he learned that with every step in that organization came with hard prices to pay, far harder than a metal chain enclosed haymaker connecting with a skull in the most brutal alley fight...

Playing the President of the Hells Angels MC in this movie is none other than Sonny Barger himself, who in 1967 was the chapter president of the Oakland, California HAMC charter.

Shoulder / Headspacing questions 6.5 Creedmoor

The issue at hand is that I cannot bump the shoulder because my die is bottomed out. Redding Competition Dies with Shell holder kit.

I am using a .400 dia Hornady bushing on my caliper. This will allow me to take a measurement from the base of the case to the shoulder tangent (where dia is 0.400”)

The saami specs shows the base to shoulder 1.5438” I measure my 3x fired Lapua brass and I have 1.5365” – so I am still 0.0073” from the shoulder after brass is fired formed. (I have sorted my fired brass I have base to shoulder tangent from 1.5355"-1.5365" with 90% at 1.5360") IS this even possible? Fire forming should espand that case to occupy the entire chamber(?)

My case length is 1.911 so I know that I have not grown my brass with only 3 fires.

The information shows that brass has not expanded to fit my chamber. OR my chamber does not meet specs and is under sized. Therefore full length sizing is not possible because the die bottoms out before contact to the shoulder has occurred.

Once the shoulder has made contact I will bump 0.002”

Does my theory seem correct – that I just haven’t fired my brass enough to occupy the headspace or Seekins undersizes their chambers.

I could have a shell holder milled ground down to prevent bottoming out and this would expose the truth of the situation.

THOUGHTS???

300 Win Mag Unexpected Muzzle Velocity/Pressure

I was looking for a load for 190gn SMKs. I wanted a powder with a little more top end than H1000 or 4350. Since I couldn’t find any Reloader I decided to try N560. It looked good on paper (Sierra loading manual). I did find a recommended load of 67gn which is .3gn below starting load. I loaded up a few rounds to try out. Components were: 190SMK, N560, once fired Federal Mk 248 brass, and FGGM magnum primers. The group and velocities were pretty close until the last shot where I shot my suppressor cover – that dropped the velocity 200fps. Average mv was 2869.5fps. According to the manual this is what I should be getting at 72.6gn. Primers were flattened but still had rounded edges and no cratering. I loaded up 10 rounds of 67gn and a ladder going up .3 grains per step. This time I brought a new 300WM that had about 40 rounds through it - basically the same barrel – both 23.6”. This time the average mv was 3126.6, ES 10.8, and SD 3.5. The primers were flattened and slight firing pin cratering but no wiping or heavy bolt lift/extraction. 3126fps is higher than any published load in the Sierra manual. Needless to say, I didn’t shoot the ladder. The 10 shot group was 1.2” including 2 fliers. Minus the fliers the group was .34” @ 100yds. Unless it was due to more resistance from the barrel, I haven’t a clue why the velocities were that high or why the difference between the two guns. My other 300 has less than 200 rounds through it so I wouldn’t think it would make that much difference. Since it is military brass I should be able to go 1gn below starting load without worrying about a flash detonation unless that is what is causing the primer flattening and cratering. Does anyone have experience with N560? Velocities, SD, and ES were measured with a Garmin C1 Pro. Thanks E_T_G
