Yes, I thought it would be a bit quicker but its in the ball park for the 6.5prc and that barrel length. I get ejector stamps if I push it, although the primers look ok. The Mauser has twin ejectors so sometimes I get 2 stamps. I don't want to ruin the brass so Im holding it back a little bit. Hope it speeds up a tad as it gets broken in. Although 3K for those long Hammers is OK - they have a G7 .245.
