    Concentricity woes...

    Re: Concentricity woes... After pressing the Hornady tool to create more runout the loaded rounds are (as mentioned) somewhat deformed..Hence why I do not recommend the tool to begin with. I am surprised and how consistent the results were, but I don't think one could draw any conclusions here.

    Long crack in .308 necks, why?

    Re: Long crack in .308 necks, why? RCBS tends to size the bejezuz out of brass..You will need to anneal that run of brass no matter what die you use. Not hard to do, just do your homework. I agree with CG. Bushing dies at about 0.335 or (my preference) a plain (cheaper too) Forster sizer...

    Lightloading high capacity cases

    Re: Lightloading high capacity cases I read a theory a while back that not only talked about flash over it also talked about the primer explosion fluidizing the powder (swirling air born) while simultaneously igniting it. Whatever goes on inside the case it is a very real phenomena that is...

    Pros and Cons of Different Annealing Machines

    Re: Pros and Cons of Different Annealing Machines I run mine with twin touches and barbeque tank. The big tank seems to even the pressure a bit during extended operations. I have a new quality reg sitting there ready to try and hope this brings some repeatability to the setup. I also bought...
