Been reloading for my 240 since factory ammo has gone up to $60 a box. Lately, the cases have ben getting stuck after i fire them. I resize and trim them after every shot and my load is below the max for the bullet weight and powder im using (100 gr sierra GK and 53 grains of H4831-SC) Also, it seems like they feel a little tight when being chambered--but this may be all in my head so????? Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Took the load down to 51 and then 50 grains. Cases dont stick in chamber anymore, but groups went from almost every hole touching to about 1.6 in. Any advice on the next load to try..should i try a lighter bullet to reduce pressure but keep the speed up....dont have a whole lot of experience with this ....any input appreciated
