What are these Rings?? --Update**

I set my shoulder back too far and when fired the cases stretched and cracked at a point close to that.

that could do it- i know we think of these head sepations as being near the base of the case but they can happen anywhere on it. thanks

I know!!! Looks like its getting a new barrel and mabie new cartridge to purdy it up a little!!!
Any advice on that??

Is that your own Build back better plan? It looks great as is! Burn that barrel out before you change it. I mean, it took what...three years to put together?

that was the plan but this is the barrel with a groove in the chamber so I need to at the least rechamber it. Thanks

Starting and stopping when sizing will do that. I have some 6bra that had several lines on them. Nothing inside.
I am will keep an eye on them. Won't know for sure until they fail. My action will contain it I'm sure.

You might be able to hone the imperfection out, if it’s as minor as it looks.
I use a tact with my wife, these days. She says :”I don’t like the way that looks!”
I retort:”Well then don’t look at it!”

it looks pretty deep so i dont think that i will be able to get it out. Youre right it probably wouldnt hurt much in this gun except mabie shorten brass life. this barrel isnt giving me much more velocity than a 6br. Its kinda short and i ran out of 4350 and powders to use for 105 ect class bullets in it. i wanted to use it for 600 to 1000. all in all its not good for much to me except mabie an ar15 barrel or pillars and hey this stock deserves a new barrel. Now if a prarie dog town popped up around here that would be different

Bad reamer, had it happen to me. Hope I'm wrong.

The big question is: Does that line cause any problems? If it's a groove in the chamber, it will leave a slight bulge in the brass on firing. As long as you don't have extraction problems, I'd say it's of no concern.

could be since this is the first chamber on that reamer. ill try cutting another thanks

i may keep shooting it and see what happens. no extraction problems so far. thanks

This is another potential use for an inexpensive borescope, checking the insides of cases. I can't say I do every case but once I get past five reloads in my magnums, I take a quick shufti on a sample of cases with the Teslong to look for separation problems.

Teslong replaced my original rigid with a flexible at no charge when the former went tits up.
