I, too, have a Rock Chucker. The thing that sold me on the Co Ax was the fact that there is NO play in the handle or ram. I tested two RC's that I have access to and they both have play in the down stroke of the handle. This play transfers to the shell plate, thus transferring to the brass...

My mistake. I thought I was in the Motivational Picture thread, not the Motivational Pattern and Math thread.

Don't know if this is the right place, but I will post it anyway. I just finished a weekend class with Force 4 in central Florida. Recently had some smith work done to my rifle and the gentleman introduced me to my instructor, John Gardner. He has a 1000 yard training range, pistol range and...

I was having the same issue as you. I started sorting my bullets by Ogive length. I bought the sort stand from Sinclair. Never vary more than .001 from round to round now. In a box of 100 .308 175grn SMK there were four different Ogive lengths varying .010 from high to low. Don't know if...

I use a guide, brass or nylon brushes and a coated rod. If I could take a picture of the "mark" I would, but it don't have that ability. I was almost wondering if it was from tooling. If it matters, the "mark" is running lengthways with the barrel.

Just got back from a range trip and was decapping my brass. I noticed scratches(feel it with fingernail depth) about 1/4 of an inch up from the head of the case. A quick inspection of my chamber reveled a groove that I could feel with a dental pick. It in no way is affecting the rifles...

Thank you...

I will chime in. Being a diver, I have been hit by jellyfish. First time, a local told me to use regular Colgate toothpaste(not the gel stuff). I looked at him like he was crazy, but I was an Ohio country boy and gave him the benefit. I was back in the water in no time. Never again worry...

There was music?

I am in the load development stages with my .308 and have switched to TAC from Varget. So far, testing has been at a 100 yards and my spread over different charge weights has been .3"-.6" using 168 SMK out of a 20" rem700. Doesnt seem to be effected by temperature. Let me know if you have any...

I used krylon after a camo job cause I was too cheap to buy the duracoat clear. DON'T DO IT. The krylon will stain and spot when cleaning the weapon. It had a rubbery feel to it. I finally got tired of it and stripped the krylon off. Duracoat remained in place. Lesson learned!

PM sent. Thanks a bunch!

+1 on the Hornady OLG. Cheap, easy and you get to "feel" what is going on in there.

Ok, had a clean 30-06 case laying on the bench. I apologize for the iPhone photo. If you would like more crisp pics, pm me and I will get out the big camera and email you some. I am really impressed with this trimmer. Wish I would have had it a year ago when I trimmed 5000 once fired LC cases!

Give me a few and I will clean a case good enough to trim it.

Sorry the picture is on its side. I tried twice and I can't get it to turn over. I did not upgrade the bit. It is my understanding that if the brass is free from dirt, dust, lube and other garbage that the bit will last a long time. It does index off the shoulder, so careful sizing is a must.

Reading the article posted by justinbaker is much easier than me re-inventing the wheel. I built a box to hold my cordless drill with the chuck facing straight up. When talking to Jim, he said putting the trimmer in a drill press would be a bad idea because some trimmings may get in between...

When did you buy them? I just got a box of brass and it was unprimed. May have to get another box to see and save 100 primers for fireforming...

First, I am not affiliated with, nor make a profit from any sales. I was searching on eBay for a new trimmer for my cases. The old hand trimming was getting old, really quick! I came across a trimmer called the CTS case trimmer. It was $42 so I figured I would give it a try. I got back from...
