Those Federal .303's I mentioned looked exactly like that. Bad brass.

We converted to all electric save the furnace in order to save on propane. We ran out of propane in the DEAD of winter a few years ago and decided enough was enough.

Having never used headspace gauges, I use the o-ring trick to set headspace right away, even using factory rounds on the first firing. As you stated in your other post, keep that brass with that...

What K43 said, quite common. Wipe it off or tumble, neck size only from here on.

I actually checked out Rangerpoint; DANG!!! I know some of you have mixed feelings concerning 'tactical' leverguns, but I am just a bit enthusiastic!

Out of a new box of 20 Federal brand ammo in .303 British, I had 5 with split necks on the first firing. Sent them to Federal with a general inquiry; received a coupon towards a new box. Bad brass?...

BTW, Junior Doughty (Junior1942) has a couple of articles on using LeveRevolution in the SKS with heavies; look for the sticky concerning Mr. Gibson's work and load data compilation. Not 2400, I...

@jdgabbard; want to sell the TAPCO stuff? Sorry for the impropriety, forgot how to PM!
Disregard!

Take a look at Mr. Gibson's 'sticky' concerning load development with the SKS; also look for Junior1942's work.

Start at the lower left corner of Mr. Gibson's post; hold the left mouse button down and drag across the screen (it will turn a shade of blue; you are 'capturing' the text/photos). When you have...

Got a pic of the whole rifle? It would help.

Alabama, if you could do that, I will print it off and show it to my pastor, just to see what he says.

Alabama, what discrepancies do you note? I read the appropriate verses and it seems to be right in line with scripture.

Team, a few months ago at an open air flea market/swap meet in Versailles, MO. (Jacob's Cave, for those of you familiar with the area), I picked up several ingots of solder (50/50, 60/40 and 70/30)....
