Was finally able to get out and do one final test with the Upper.
5 factory rounds
5 reloads at the original should bump at 1.216
5 reloads at the longer length that came up at 1.219.
All rounds ended up with those rings around the shoulder and a fired CL of 1.225+/-. I have no clue why my fired CL grew .007 from new, and why the apparent reamer gouges started showing up in the fired brass.
I've Contacted Mark at PF last week both prior to testing (conversation bouncing back and forth about how to proceed) and after the testing but have not heard back from him yet. Hopefully just busy and has not had time to respond to emails or PMs on this site.
