Hey all,
I'm somewhat new to reloading but been very successful and having great results thus far. For the most part, I'm good as far as the whole process goes. I just have a few questions and I think I know the answers but would like to get a 2nd opinion from more experienced loaders.
Firstly, below are some brass cases I have. Which of these have crimped primers? I've searched online and looked at pictures. I think I know which are crimped but again, prefer 2nd opinion.
We're going to call these brass pieces A - H from left to right so there's no confusion.
First pic is A B C D E F G H.
Second pic is A B C D E F & half of G
Third pic is C D E F G H
Lastly, I have ammo loaded from my previous barrel. It had a long throat as it was nearing it's end of life. Therefore, ammo is loaded too long for new barrel and the charge is a bit much. I will pull loaded rounds apart and load them to new barrel recipe.
Because they've had a bullet seated in the case for months, should I resize case/neck or will I be good to just seat bullet at new depth? Obviously this would be done after dumping powder and re-charging with appropriate charge weight.
Thanks a bunch...
**edit to add**
Should have thrown these in there too.with the crimped primers question. This is fgmm 7.62
And this...
I should have also mentioned this is all for bolt guns. I do not have any AR style rifles. And whatever brass I end up reloading from these posted above, will be for bolt gun.
