Reloads/Headspace Issue

[ETEX HUNTER]

thanks for the info

well, your info was a great help. the extractor was stiff and not working properly. little work on that it is working fine now. next I had gotten some hand load ammo from what I thought was a reputable guy local to me. the neck had not been trimmed after resizing which made the case to long. I'm cycling Hornady Black 123g ELD & Hornady 123g SST with no issues .

When I was young, many decades ago, the guy who taught me to reload warned me to never, under any circumstances, shoot someone else's handloads. Any idea what happens when the too long neck becomes impinged by the rifling? Catastrophic failure.
Reload or don't, but don't shoot someone else's handloads. JMHO~ Riuma
