Thanks for the responses and info. I'm probably not going to do it anymore or if I do I'll follow the skip suggestion. I prefer to neck size only and this was an attempt to get a little more "OCD" :p uniformity. It's not even for my rifle but our Daughter's; and she hasn't reached the point...

Turned some cases and on about every third case I would get a split neck. Is there any spec. on minimum OD? Load was a standard load that worked fine in unturned cases. Thanks, Bexar

Pulled one of the two new ones out. Thanks. Approximately how long to vibrate to clean out the primer pockets do y'all think?

I bought some very fine grind walnut lizard bedding to polish some brass cases and nickle pistol cases to clean the pockets. I'm using an RCBS punch bowl type vibrator cleaner. I've heard to use dryer sheets to hold down the dust. I ASSUME it means use new dryer sheets. How long should I...

Yep...that happened to a guy with a shotgun that got dunked. The "limiters" used to be made of wood in the Mod 12s. He meticulously cleaned the gun but didn't properly manage the magazine dowel. Sure enough it rusted up the spring...follower and tube. Thanks.

Been there done that before...even one time used a whittled branch in a quick blind fix for a buddies. I certainly will resort to that if necessary; however, I'd like to go with OEM for this shotgun since it's my Daughter's. She gets top drawer best. I'll settle for a broken stick for my stuff...

Thanks folks. RC...I'll save that link. Any idea where I can get the magazine adaptor? Numrich/Gunparts is sold out. Thanks.

My Daughter's Winchester SuperX2 magazine takes 3 three inch shells. I looked at the end of the magazine and I'm not going to assume I know how it "should" come apart. I've got the manual around in a drawer but that's migrated to a "safe spot" somewhere. Any ideas? Thanks...Bexar

Ditto.

Yep...a lot of them get trapped...cut and released here in East and Southeast Texas to go eat acorns and root in river bottoms. I've seen a couple in East Texas hanging from trees that were huge but went un-weighed. They had to be over 400 pounds and I was impressed the tree limb didn't break...

Remington Core-lokts. The work-truck of all calibers.

Thanks everyone...is the Shuster vented or designed to increase the cylinder displacement? I shined a light through one end and couldn't see any coming through the other end. The reason I bought it for her rifle was so she could later on pick up a box of commercial ammo to convert some field...

It is determined by bolt speed which can be affected by powder burn rates and port pressures. I'll try to find my John Clarke's NRA article on reloading for the Garand. He mentions, if I remember correctly, the 1:00 position is the place brass of a properly tuned rifle with properly matched...

Don't be disappointed too much in that Garand. I think military acceptance was a four inch 100 yard group using GI ammo. That said...I love the Garand.

Interested in your thoughts if you do. Thanks...Bexar

So a "punchless" bolt has never been assembled on a rifle...thanks.

I've got three surplus Garand bolts in GI grease paper wrap...two 12SA and one 65 series and none of them have the Rockwell hardness punch. I've heard but can not confirm not all bolts in a given heat treatment were RW tested just a statistical significant amount of a particular heat treatment...

Thanks y'all. MC...I have some 180 gr. Nosler soft point boat tails and I already have the 165 gr. Gameking HPs. I also happen to have some 130 gr flat base pointed soft points. Also some 168 gr Matchkings but following Pato's advice I'm not going to have her hunt with those. I shot a doe one...

Sorry guys...what's BLO? Thanks

Thanks Ron.
