Against my better judgment, I reloaded some once fired Hornady brass for my 300 Savage...a nice model 99. The Hornady factory rounds were fired in the same rifle. Brass sized nicely...standard dies. Brass was trimmed to minimum specs. Bullet seated to 2.600”...SAAMI max COL. Primer pockets were not over-sized. My load was 40.0 grains of IMR4064. Hornady 150 grain Interlock bullet. Federal 210 primers. A moderate, mid-range load in the Hornady reloading manual. Around 2500fps. First 10 rounds were fired with once fired Federal brass. Primers showed no signs of excess pressure. The pictures below show the first shot with the once fired Hornady brass. STAY AWAY FROM THIS CRAP. And Hornady, if you’re reading this you should damn well know better than to put crap like this on the market.
