Sounds like it is worth a go, thanks for the reply’s

Has anyone had any experience importing a PTG bolt from the US? Thinking about importing one if it is not to much of a run around.

I might give neck turing a shot at some point to see in the near future to see if I get any performance increases. Thanks for the information GWH

Yes gunworks did the reaming. From what I can tell when measuring the brass it does seem to be just a fraction wider at the very base of the neck. What did you find to be the ideal neck clearance...

I am running a suppressor on it

Cheers everyone for the replies, seems like I'm not far off the mark with where it is now so I will just stick with it and find a nice accurate load to run through this gun.

Hi team, I have read a few previous articles on this page about this topic but through I may as well get a few more ideas. I have recently had a remington 700 LA re-barreled and reamed into 284 win,...

I will defiantly second that

Hey Micky, Yep had some fed match primers turn op the other week. Probably shot 80 primers, some live rounds some not with 0 misfires. So seems like it was a easy fix at this stage! Just chasing...

Good idea cheers!

Got a mate with some different primers hopefully try tomorrow and go form there. Next step will be firing pin and/or spring replacement

Well made sure to seat primers just below flush, less pressure/depth than I usually than I usually would and had a 80% misfire rate

Ill try seat some about as shallow as i can and see what happens

The problem would be getting the ammo to try

I’ll have a look see if there is contact in there

Yeah I should be able to find another rifle. Wouldn't imagine it would be primers as it is pretty clear that the primers have not been hit properly once they misfire

Just tested fired brass with primers, Did 12 cases 4 of which failed to fire. Reprimed those 4 cases, 3 of which fired and one did not. Measured the headspace on all the brass and could not see and...

Okay Ill run a few rounds with fire cases and see where that gets me. Did this eliminate the issue or do you still have a few cases misfire? Also how often are you pushing back your shoulder?

Unfortunately I don't have a factory one and I just sold my only other remington in the safe.

Sorry I meant I pulled the bullet and deprimed the case then reprimed added powder and projectile. Firing pin sticks out about 1.6mm.

I tested the biggest brass headspace variation I could, with...

Hi all,

Im having a problem with my Remington 700 doing light strikes on primers. I have just got my 280 AI up and running and was doing a ladder test when every 1in 5 rounds was not firing as the...

Alway been planning on getting into reloading and now seems like the right time to take the jump and see what happens.

Right quick update, I managed to get into town and pick up some ammo. I ended up grabbing some Hornady American Whitetail 165gr just to see how it went. RE-checked zero and shot a few groups to see...

Cheers for that. Have always been interested in reloading but never taken the jump mainly considering due to my circumstances limiting that ability. Will try something else and really make sure my...

If other ammunition has the same problem leaning towards a loose bore issue can cause other issues?
