fire form

[kokomokid]

Has anyone tried this? I have a few .43 spanish brass formed from .348 (buffalo arms). Now I have come into possesion of a 11.15 x 58 werndl 77 . Body from head to almost neck will have to expand almost 10 thousands. Thoughts are small pistol powder charge. Has anyone tried to anneal the case body?

Why not just get some proper brass for the 43 spanish from Jamison.
Yes you can fire form brass, but when you have to expand the body, you're running on the trail of case seperation, sometimes when you fireform, sometimes a few rounds later.. Either way it always happens at a most inopportune moment.
