    What to do with 30-06 brass?

    I get 100 at a time of the same head stamp at my local range for $10/100 and they do the initial tumbling so the cases are ready to inspect. The easiest way to tell if commercial brass is once fired is to Full Length size case and measure it. If it exceeds max length they are not 1X fired.

    Help me spend some money...

    Glad to hear a few more rounds of chemo and you're done. As for the choice the Standard Loaded is the best option for the least amount of money. If you buy a standard you are going to upgrade the trigger to a NM model that will end up costing about $150 for a good smith to work the standard...

    Rifle Scopes M1a mount?

    Burris Signature rings are your best bet to add MOA. Scoping M1A's is a challenge and I've never had one hold zero. I've used Sadlak, SAInc, and ARMS #18. Signature Rings - rifle scopes, handgun scopes, hunting scopes by Burris Optics

    Bright ring question...pressure or something else? (yes, with picture)

    I think you're ok. I get the same thing from my M1A's and it is very common in semi 308's. Has to do with what happens after the explosion nd the bolt cycles while the brass is still very hot and malleable. The case is still 'stuck' to the inside of the chamber wall when the bolt...
