How many loads are you getting out of your cases?

My friend is buying one of these beasts.

Also, I'm wondering if my Redding BOSS is up to sizing them (size of opening). They are as tall as an Atlas Booster :p

Thanks!
 
Re: 300RUM Brass Life?

I toss them after the second loading. I load them max+ with 200 grain Accubonds and if you try to load them a third time the primer pockets are to loose. I did stock up on bulk brass a few years ago when it was cheap. You should be fine using the Boss
 
Re: 300RUM Brass Life?

I load them and also 338 LM on a standard Rock Chucker, as far as brass life my 300 rum is on the 4th loading but I am not at max 208 gr. A max;s at 3000 fps
 
Re: 300RUM Brass Life?

RCBS Rock Chucker or the equivalent will do............

2-3 shots and your out with 91.5 grains of RL-25 and 210 Bergers at 3,250 fps.

Thank you gentlemen!

I got to shoot the rifle today, and quite frankly it was fun as hell
