As a precursor, let me say that I am currently using Federal GMM .308 recycled brass that has been full length resized.
I notice that when I seat the bullets, there is a gritty sound. On top of this, I notice a fair amount of resistance while seating the bullets. Contrary to what has just been said, I find almost no grittiness or resistance when using winchester brass. The bullets seats as smooth as melted butter.
Is this a result of the brass, or is it usually a case of the brass needing to be annealed? I would argue the case quality is lower because this happens even with once fired brass. Any thoughts?
