Since that brass is useless to me and all appears to be in good condition, should i try and sale it, or just scrap it? It is roughly 300 pieces, so it could make someone really happy. Or would you guys think that it would be a "scam" to sale it? .300 WSM "once fired" brass is kinda difficult to...

Based on the info supplied, I'd wager that the once fired brass you purchased was fired in an oversize chamber and the bases are expanded beyond where your die will reach What is an oversized chamber? Do they do this on purpose, or is it just the differences in manufactors?

I always trim after sizing...should i do it the other way?

It is not my brass, i bought it as "once fired" brass. My gun is a Tikka, not sure if that makes a difference. Tonight after work i will go home and take some measurments and post that...anything else that would be helpful to know that would make this easier to troubleshoot? Thanks for the help.

OK...I have a Lee aniversary press, with Lee shell holder and a RCBS full length resizing die but i keep getting a ring around the bottom of the case like it is not resizing the entire case??? If you look between the two red lines you will see the issue. The cases will not fit into my rifle and...

I have about 225 of these pieces of .300 WSM. The head stamp each says "Winchester .300 WSM". Are theses any different? The problem is that they will not even fit into my normal .300 WSM Lee shell holder. I noticed that they each have a gold/brass slot in the base...Any ideas?

For really tarnished brass (range pickups) I soak them in a solution of 1 cup, vinegar, 1 cup water, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp regular dishwashing detergent for 15-30 mins (shake every 2 or 3 mins). Then I rinse them very good and throw them in wet into walnut (medium size) with a cap of NUfinish car...

Also i have heard the the acurracy and consistancy is better with the FCD. Havn't been able to test that myself, but i will eventually.

Ok. This may sound stupid, but can you mold your own bullets out of lead with out jacketing them for high powered rifles...why or why not? Also what could you make solid lead bullets for? Just pistols? I am pretty ignorant when it comes to this, so please don't laugh to hard!!:confused:

I bought a Lee Load Master to load .223. I am using H335 and it keeps spilling out of the powder measure on the side. (out of the drumm) which in turn makes it very hard to turn which is breaking the chain. Is that powder to small for the Lee "Perfect Powder Measure". Has anyone else had a...

I dunno...I just got these pics in a chain email today...thought they was purdy...:D

not all are bad...:what::uhoh:

perhaps a jaguar...:confused:

load a 12 ga with a roll of dimes and shoot at a sheet of plywood and marvel the results...gets kinda expensive though and repeatedly done would wreck havack on your barrel...:o
