This is not a production quality method.....the best results I came up with required a lot of drip drop stations as well as heat cure stations and with a 30 min cure in heat that would require a lot...

This is industry wide unfortunately. We have seen huge drops in production on our end due to a lack of demand as well as dropping prices. At a certain point its just not worth it and changes need...

I run two dies on our automated processing machines. One die to just decap and in the next station we full length size with Dillon carbide dies. The reason is the first die is a rcbs fl die but the...

Only problem with light cases is they tend to tumble around in the case feeder rather than drop like normal brass. i learned this when we loaded aluminium cases. .085 per brand new uber case...not...

Fastest way is corn cob media. The trick is to not put it in when its too wet.....unlike other things. Like Soundguy said 90% iso is a great mixer for wet tumbling. Be prepared to invest in a lot of...

I can get tons of pre-primed new cases from the factory for the same price you re paying for once fired in brass.

those black beauties are perfect....Just don't load them and leave them for to long in the cases! They will go rotten.

The crimp at the case mouth did not get put on at all...It's not every round but a few per hand full. Its like the die backed off. They were sent to be pulled down vs re ran. I am imagining due to...

Yea but what shell holder would you use...I'm guessing you would have to get one made that would not set off the cartridge should you jamb one up...sounds dangerous.

I mean with in 5 to 10 fps of universals published data. Just use starting loads and work up to where you want to be...this is great powder.
