    Where can I get a Weatherby headspace/bump gauge???

    Awesome, thanks guys. I ordered the .400 gauge and it worked perfectly. Come to find out I was bumping my brass .012 which was leading to case separation at around 5x firing on the brass. Because of this handy little gauge I am able to dial in a .0015 bump -- thanks again for the help!

    Can brass be too old (age) to reload???

    My Dad dropped off some 7mm Mag brass that is 1979/1980 era brass that was once fired. Can brass be too old to reload? It was stored properly in a low humidity area and looks OK. Just didn't know if brass becomes brittle or something when its old.
