I started picking up .45 ACP Range brass, because there's so much of it, and it seemed like so much of a waste to just leave it. The stuff is in all sorts of shape/condition, etc., so I deprime then SS wet tumble to clean up the crud. I noticed that some of the cases had a ring left at the bottom of the case after I FL sized it, so I bought a Lee Bulge Buster to take the ring out. Not only did it take out the rings, but as an added bonus it cleaned up all the extractor knicks and gouges off of the rim. The cases ALL came out in great condition. Now, I'm waiting for my Lee Precision Quick Trim set-up from Natchez. Contrary to what everybody says about trimming .45 ACP brass, I feel that to get the same taper crimp on EVERY round, the cases should be trimmed to Specs for my chamber(s).
