So that's it. Makes a lot of sense and maybe all manufacturers should do it. I know that the tolerance on the 180-grain .40 can be especially critical and that there have been some reports of overpressure due to the bullet slipping from its seating. Not a problem if you are using Hryda-Shok and the other hot defense loads, I might add.
Thanks, DA.

Yep;That one bullet that is cleared and loaded, day in and day out,will also be the first one to explode in the face when that time comes around for a need to use it.

Federal even puts the crimp on their hydra shoks for revolvers.Could be a liability thing also.

I hope repeated clearing is not dangerous in a bolt-action deer rifle. Lord knows, I have a few cartridges that have made mebbe a half-dozen visits to the firing chamber only to be unloaded at the end of the day!

It's good to check the length of one before you rechamber it;I keep a close eye on those.I have ammunition cases that I place my cartridges in before I take them for shooting.These are the plastic hinged cases that allow me to visually check the length of all of my cartridges before leaving.I inspect them when I store them and before I use them,for any factory defects.
