I will try to upload pics as soon as I can. I'm offshore for the next 8 weeks the wife keep sending pics of the wrong brass. I appreciate all the help. as for as blank I am trying to fill them in. I don't get to get online all the time at work. whatever error I made believe me I want to identify...
they view completely out the primer pocket. a few ended up in the magazine and one got hung up behind the extractor. and thefollowing round would not chamber properly. had to put in the magazine and pull the charging handle back. the OAl was correct. so is that causes by high or low pressure ...
both firearms are ars. I didn't consult the hodgons website. I used hornaday 9th edition.and my loads are on the puny side so that's what threw me off. as far as double checking goes . I do. no I don't have a chronograph. and no they weren't leaning before. the wraps caused by the shell holder...
I was using a lee hand primer. and the brass would be warped horrible where it was in the shell holder. it wouldn't stand straight up on the table and it looked like the leaning tower

so I been reloading using the same components for a while. I bought some once. fired brass and started reloading it the same way I always load my brass. I loaded a few and went to shoot, every primer blew out. I thought I had made an error. so I went back to the loading table and did it again...
wow thanks. I ended up using hot water down the barrel followed by wd40 and more hoppes 9. it took a lot of the cosmoline and grime out. hopefully I'll get to shoot it this weekend.
I'm new to surplus rifles. the mosin I got was not saturated in cosmoline, so removal was fairly easy. however getting it out of the barrel is a different story. just when I think I got it all I find more.the bore is shiny with good rifling and there seems to be cosmoline mostly in the corner of...
I measured after sizing and some were .010 shorter than trim length. I use hornaday 9th edition reloading manual. Max case lenght 1.760 and trim length of 1.750. Quite a few measured at 1.745-1.740. The bullet seated fine and they chambered well.
Im reloading for 223 and fairly new to the hobby. I've been saving my brass and got ready to reload, I had a good first batch of reloads. However some of my once fired brass was shorter than max trim length. Is it still ok to use and what problems can I encounter if I use it.
Wrote all my state reps several times, as far as progress Mississippi has a bill up for vote to block any unconstitutional act by the federal government. So writing helps. And y'all pray bill 625 passes
Had a die hard anti that works with me completely against ar15 because he believed the media.... well about 14the days of debate along with properly educating him on the subject he is now shooting them and wanting to buy one.
