    37XC build

    Most likely because 15 over ambient put you over what the brass will withstand. Work hardening at the bottom limits sizing via springback. The only way to try to reclaim that brass is push thru die to sweage the base diameter back to as new Sometimes that works, sometimes not Your extractor...

    37XC build

    Jason Your brass is fatigued. Start over with new stuff I'm experimenting with the same condition with Barrett brass . Most of what I,m seeing is a lot of guys are running at the top or over to obtain velocities. Not good. Just made up 12 pieces RWS into 416 Barrett to see what shakes out...

    Anyone here had a ride on the new Beemer B18? I'm looking for what it may be on long hauls. Seems a bit restrictive on peg and board options. Thanks.

    Accuracy Int'l Coopermatch

    Mac passed a couple years ago. John Whidden took on Barnard from Mac. I connected Barnard with Mac back in 95/96. First Barnard to the states was by me in 95. I have no idea whatever became of Mac's extensive collection of some really unique and interesting small bore rifles and such.

    What's your take on this

    Weight means nothing. It's the volume that counts when the outside measures the same.

    New EnABELR

    Low I ran Rockwell B scale testing on the base of the brass faced off at the top of the flash hole. Numbers runs in the mid 50,s. About half hard. Not good. Good hard brass in that area runs in the low to mid 90,s. Explains the ejector extrusion visable with medium loads. I've tried to...

    Dies or wildcat chamberings. AI and others.

    There has been a fare amount of Wildcats that I see from customers that are mostly " AI" THAT SHOW UP AT MY DOOR that do not match up with the reamer print. Most are short in head space measurement due to using a - .004 std gage. These are from brass measurements from -.0010 to - .0016. My dvise...

    Annealing question with pictures
