When loading the 6mm ARC to Bolt Action pressures what sort of life span ( how many firings ) can I expect from Hornady Brass ?
Hornady is the only Brass I have available to me .
I should mention I’m not annealing the Brass .
Any first hand experience would be greatly appreciated.
 
Not annealing, probably 5-7 before you get neck splits.

With an annealing schedule (every 3 firings) you can usually get 15-25 depending on how you size the brass. Failure mode then is case head separation.
