I love carbide dies so much I can just toss dirty ass range brass into my press and make ammo out of it

According to Wikipedia, the standard French police .357 mag load>was loaded with 161 gr (10.4 g) soft point bullets and manufactured by the SFM (Société française de munitions, based in Issy-les-Moulineaux, France)How would I go about duplicating this?

Could rant about how I received a Gew 88 front sling band (I'll Modify It) instead of the correct barrel bands for my 71/84 Parts Build, but I'm just going to be glad I got an original Ecuadorian Surp take off stock that isn't too terribly damaged nor terribly oversized like the movie takeoff that I overpaid for. Anyway my parents were clearing out my grandparents estate and put a bold green letter PYREX 4 cup measuring cup and an abused but sandblastable Wagner Ware 1088 deep chicken frying skillet, at least I saved that from the Methheads in the area to deprive them of quality vintage cookware. anyway Bertram brass is like 6$ a case but I have not the experience nor the tooling even in a cnc machine shot so that's Gay

The cheap primed 7.62 brass Midsouth Shooters Supply is selling seemed nice, but I didn't realize how messy the extra sealant would be. It's cleaning up ok with my die cleaning spray, but it's definitely a new experience for me. It's what I get for going with the discount stuff, but this should all be useable.

The moment my case cleaner gets produced in the USA the lead will fully keep dissolved in Liquid. Trow in toilett and flushing gear and clean cases with water will fully remove it without having particles of solids absorbing into skin.

Been shooting some 100gr American Eagle .327 through my SP101 and after cleaning the brass in preparation for reloading, I noticed all of the primers were flattened. Is that just normal for .327 because of how high pressure the cartridge is?

Fuck Winchester small rifle primers, these things pierce like crazy for no good reason. Shooting loads that don't produce any pressure signs with other primers will pop a Winchester.

My 445 supermag brass came in. Just 20 cases to mess with for starters. .445 supermag vs .44 mag vs .44 special

>Shoot my first .45 ACP reloads this past weekend. >All shoot well, but a bunch of unburnt powder coated my forearm. I loaded it with a low charge of HP-38. Would it burn more cleanly with a heavier charge?

Any body ever had a case head separate? If so, damage report?

>find free brass at public range >finished cleaning, now sizing >flattened primers galore >case necks splitting in swager >just find random empty primed case Well not only is it now obvious to me that they are reloads, now I understand why they were left behind, moreover why none of the brass goblins sucked them up.

I’ve heard a neck splitting can damage a chamber. Is that true?
