Folks, do any of you reload your 7.62X25 for the CZ 52? I recently purchased a set of Lee dies, and picked up ~60 empty S&B 7.62X25 cases at a range where I was shooting last week. After I cleaned and lubed them, I resized and de-primed, and noticed that most of the brass had a small dent at the mouth where the ejector dented the brass as it was leaving the chamber. The full length resize didn't get completely rid of the little dent. Does it matter, or when you re-seat the new bullet, will that dent be removed?
Also, and as the subject line indicates, do you all trim this cartridge before re-loading it? I was thinking perhaps of having Lee make a 7.62X25 length gauge (as I use this system for trimming all my brass, pistol as well as rifle, and it has worked well for me) but was wondering if it is necessary, and what you all might use to trim your cases.
Lee would have to custom manufacture this length gauge, as it is not one of their common sizes, but they demand to know the exact length and diameter to make their length gauge.
Does anyone have any experience with this, and would you be willing to share your thoughts? Thanks so much in advance, Richard
