I had a partial case head separation using a 1.8oz buffer
#18
I didn't feel this was a compressed load, and I always visually inspect the level when seating to make sure it's not a squib. Now, I could have spaced one I guess, but I will have to check a few in the box and see what I find. I need to get a puller so it may be a few days before I can investigate that side.

I cleaned up the rifle and bore-scoped it - no issues I could see in the lugs or barrel throat. I checked headspace, and it looks like the bolt now fully seats on the no-go gauge. I replaced the bolt with a spare Monster, and it's back to spec. Hopefully the image loads this time. The image size limits on the forum are a bit small...
