View Full Version : Graf's selling brass flash hole seconds -- cheap

Grafs has a new circular out and on the back page they list some common mil-surp calibers that are being sold out due to slightly off center flash holes. They claim 80% of the brass is within spec and only a few of the remaining 20% are off bad enough to break a resizing pin.

For those who have a drill bit with the primer pocket bushing which kisses out your flash holes out to a consistent-for-cast-bullet-pressures-with-no-shoulder-set-back oversize, I wonder how many of these cheapie cases would just clean up 100% during your re-drill operation?

Anyhow, $12.99 per hundred isn't a bad new brass price for common mil-surp brass sizes like 6.5x55 Swedish and 7x57 Mauser brass -- even if a little work may be involved sorting out the off-set primer flash holes.
