Good enough reason to bush it

[Cloudrepair]

The pin looks big but probably only about .073 +-.001
And there is that shadow of a primer leak?

Doesn't look bad and your load is mild. But I say bush 'em all.

I see nothing in the world wrong with that “powder puff” load. You may just be looking for a reason to bush it

Yah I may just leave it alone
Funny you say powder puff load
That is a max load with the hogdon web site with the 130 and varget.
But these are Berger not tmk's
And they do seem a bit conservative.
I do have some loaded up to 37 grains

As always use extreme caution. Sometimes at published max once you pass it you get real hot real quick

Any of you do a sako before?

 

[DaveTooley]

There are four parts to problems with primer flow. 1. is the diameter of the pin 2. the diameter of the hole 3. the shape of the tip 4. pressure. All contribute to the problem or the solution.

Is that a sako bolt?
I see it has a sako extractor

 

[carlsbad]

Finally understand your question. LOL. No, that's just a nice sako extractor on a PTG bolt for rem 700.

On my second cup of coffee and just about awake. Tough week including 2 day trip to Pittsburg. Sako is not difficult to bush. Anyone who bushes bolts should do sako.

Diameter of the hole is 90% of the issue. #physics.
