The last two rounds I fired while out hunting had this appearence. I checked the rounds I fired a couple months ago and this didnt happen. It was around 80* then, the round in the pic was fired at around 20*.
Is this caused by high pressure, possibly a dirty chamber (causing the high pressure)? I suspect that because a couple rounds lately have been slightly difficult to eject manually and after watching the Brownells video I see that I have not been effectively cleaning the chamber.
The round is a 60gr Vmax over 24gr of Benchmark, primer is CCI 400, Win brass full length sized in a Redding die. Rifle is a RRA Predator pursuit, with about 175 rounds through it total.
Thoughts?
