All the precautionary measures are certainly needed and must be followed when reloading, I understand this totally and feel I've done sufficient research on what I'm doing as a new reloader for rifle. I've reloaded tons of .45.
Chamber length, head space, measure from ogive to head with knowledge of the chamber's measurements to lands, case length and individually weighed powder charges, etc. have been accounted for. I was starting to get a little concerned as I'm getting set to work up a new load this weekend with going over the book max, as conditions allow (first time doing this).
Don't feel I need to get paranoid, but was wondering if anyone has had any serious safety issues or has seen anyone with problems occur. Did a search and saw that M1's and M14's can present problems, and read about the potential issues in my Sierra manual, but was wondering if anyone has ever had (or knows anyone who has had) any serious issues in reloading a work-up round for a bolt gun? What went wrong? Thanks.
