    Stainless Steel Media Testimonials

    Re: Stainless Steel Media Testimonials I loaded up on Ivory several years ago when it was much less cost wise at Wally World. I have like 25 bottles laid in. I got a gallon of Dawn at Sams for like 8.00???? and it works as well. Main thing to add is Lemishine.

    Re: Stainless Steel Media Testimonials .062 media I believe would stick like glue in flash holes or large rifle cases and they are about .060" range. Can't say about .500 long.

    Stainless Steel Media Testimonials

    Re: Stainless Steel Media Testimonials Too much Lemishine will turn cases copper colored. Been there, done that. A 9MM case is all you need for Lemishine or a 40S&W case full. I use 1/2 ounce of Ivory. Dawn will work but they are a little darker for me. I have 30o bottles of Ivory laid in.

    Stainless Steel Media Testimonials

    Re: Stainless Steel Media Testimonials I guess I am just lazy. I size my cases like I am going to load them (neck or FL) and leave the lube on and let the Ivory and Lemishine do their thing. I figure if it removes the carbon the other stuff removed is just a freeby plus and saves an extra...

    Stainless Steel Media Testimonials

    Re: Stainless Steel Media Testimonials Unfortunately if clean brass is exposed to the air it is going to tarnish depending on local conditions. The soaking in Lemishine apparently leaves a protective coating for lack of a better term on it. Putting them in freezer bags may well keep the...

    Does barrel wear effect ES/SD?

    Re: Does barrel wear effect ES/SD? Did you record each shot in string? When I do long runs I shoot 10 and tally and continue on for another ten and at times you can detect rounds going faster as barrel heats/fouls.

    Re: Have you ever blown the base clean off? Former navel person is right on the mark and with a few good measuring tools and die selection it will never happen to you again. Here's how: First off get a good micrometer and good calipers. Measurement on cases is made in several places. First...

    ruptured primers

    Re: ruptured primers Javy, Is your striker nose perfectly hemispherical and having no sharp edges or tool marks? So you have small holes. Assuming there is no deformation of the striker nose I have to concur that you may have a lot of thin cups which happens to all manufacturers sooner or...

    SD and ES; what is considered good?

    Re: SD and ES; what is considered good? When the Marine Corps Rifle Team was using M14s I asked their ammo tech what their internal requirements were for LR ammo and they said SD of 10 was their standard. A 30 cal bullet at 1000 yards with a 100 FPS spread will give you about 40" of vertical...

    Lake City Brass difficult to extract (question)

    Re: Lake City Brass difficult to extract (question) You could have several problems. Since it has a Rock barrel do you know if it has a tight chamber or a jumbo SAAMI chamber? If you have a tight chamber your fired cases will measure .469 or less with commercial cases. LC Match cases...
