I have developed a moderate and accurate load of 62.5 grains of H4831, Remington brass, and Hornady 139 grain BTSP's. I bumped the shoulders back enough on the once fired factory cases so that they will chamber. What kind of brass life am I looking at? Do I need to use my lee collet neck sizer to increase case life or will bumping the shoulders back every time I resize be the best idea?
I have noticed that after the 2nd firing of the brass (first firing of the reload) the brass does not seem to grow in length like the first factory firing did and also measuring for headspace with my Hornady tool does not show much of a change on the second firing.
