7.62X25 brass the EASY way!-
tools needed-
computer
--------------
Go and buy it from midway.
---------------------------------------
7.62X25 brass the CHEAP way!-
Tools needed-
Reloading press
Case trimmer
Neck turner
FL 7.62X25 Dies
223 brass
----------------------
Go and count out however many 223s as you want to make into 7.62X25s.
Then run them all the way into the FL 7.62X25 sizing die.(I used LEE dies, and do not know if it will work with RCBS or Lyman. If it does not just try taking out the decapping rod assembly.)
Next cut them all most to length with a pipe cutter. If this seems hard, use a pare of pliers to turn it. put the pliers on the neck side of the case.
Then trim the cases to length.
Now turn the necks. It may take several tries before you get the neck turner set right. The cases are to thick to use a 308 pilot, but a 284 works fine.
Now full length size again.
Load.
Shoot.:Fire:The cases do bulge a little at the bottom, but not enough to matter. Works well. Compered to how I did it before it is not hard. So I learned something good today.
