Thanks for all the input. At least for the near future, I won’t run brass that’s already been fired through my Kriss Vector with and unsupported chamber. I’ve been playing around with lighter loads and just don’t get great results without upping them to the point of it exhibit some bulge.
I was able to get some new Starline brass from MBC, and I also purchased range dirty once fired brass from Georgia Brass. To my delight, the vast majority was not bulged. So separating those un-bulged ones out gives an option at a lower cost. But both options will be one and done through the Kriss from now on.
Well...maybe not done for good. I found a 10mm Hi-Point for under $400....and um, the bullpup conversion for $250. But think of all that brass I’ll be saving.
One more question to the members that had a more conservative approach that was a suggestion from a reloading co-worker of mine...What do you think about reusing once fired brass that’s only slightly bulged and taking care to load it into the magazine 180 degrees from the unsupported portion of the chamber to get a second using before culling?
