    Letting vinegar blacken brass ok?

    Re: Letting vinegar blacken brass ok? Sharpies are great!!! but they put too much shine on the brass when using black. (they are black, but very high gloss and reflective when using sharpie) Thanks for the inputs, they are very reassuring. I would have hated to use the blacking process on...

    Letting vinegar blacken brass ok?

    Re: Letting vinegar blacken brass ok? Good stuff!!!! I would think that a layer just enough to look like bluing where there is still color swirls and variations would be how I would classify "light" tarnish. If it gets to be thick enough that the color begins to look uniform or...

    Case too small for minimum powder charge

    Re: Case too small for minimum powder charge Good suggestions...I'll try the water trick. Guess I wasn't really worried about an under pressure situation since the 54g min load on Hogden's site still shows what i felt was excessive pressure for a min load. This brass is R.P. but I guess...

    Case too small for minimum powder charge

    I decided to load up some coyote killers for my 30-06. I'm loading 110gr Hornady VMAX with my old faithful IMR4064. Min recommended charge is 55-56 depending on the recipe. Problem is I start compressing at about 52g...which I thought is odd to have to compress to get the min. load. My...
