    Any Way To Tell if Rifle Brass is only 1X Fired?

    Looking for a crimped primer has already bene mentioned. Another way to tell if some brass is once fired is the discoloration left from annealing. Not all once fired brass will show discoloration, but any that does is almost certainly only fired once.

    No problem. I assumed it would be illustrative of what you see as well.

    Dillon 1200 Trimmer First Impressions

    I wet tumble mine with stainless steel pins and there is still enough bur that the expander makes a little shaving. This might be partly due to the blade getting dull and next time I process some brass I'll rotate it. Like dbarnhart though - it's good enough for me.

    show me your groups, factory vs handload!

    ROFL - I feel your pain. I used to qual with a mid 240s on the KD. Now I get a headache trying to focus on the front sight.

    show me your groups, factory vs handload!

    nra, I have an older M&P 15T and it's stupid accurate for an off the shelf AR. Last time I shot any factory ammo with it, it was MOA at 200 yds with Rem UMC 55 gr. Most M&T have a 1/9 twist. What weight bullets are you shooting? Could it be you are shooting heavier bullets than it can...

    Rusty, That last 3 shot groups looks to be about 3/4 MOA? Very nice for a stock RRA. I assume you are using optics as opposed to irons?

    These are only from 50 yds (it was raining and I shot indoors). AR15 w/14.5in Daniel Defense barrel. AimPoint Micro T1. 10 rounds each target. Black Hills red box 55 gr FMJ Hornady 55 gr FMJ, 25 gr H335, Rem 7.5 primer, mixed head stamp brass. The flyer was 100% JOTT.

    "I'm guessing that the Dillon Die Plate is thinner that the Hornady's upper casting because I needed to screw the sizing die in quite far, to the point that part of the chip exhaust port on the die is obscured." Do you have the lock nut on top or bottom of the tool head? As I recall I had the...

    If you had 800 dollars. * Updated *

    Reaver, I’m far from the experience of most people on this forum, but I think that in itself somewhat qualifies me to respond. First I’ll echo the comment on buying used. I shopped used when I first got started and found a guy selling his entire kit. I paid $500 for everything and sold...

    Purpose of Crimped Primer Pockets?

    As someone else once said - to piss off reloaders. But really it is to prevent popped primers during cycling of the weapon. Particularly AR based guns.

    Dillon 600 2000 rounds per hour.

    Sounds similiar to the way I do it. I just prop a cardboard backstop behind a container. Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2EyE-HAv3I
