Thanks, I’ll try that. 300 win mag and Norma brass. The loads are not hot rods and the primer pockets are still nice and tight. I appreciate the help

I have an issue with nech tension. I use Redding “S” FL die with expander ball removed and bushing installed. The last set of reloads, some not all, of the finished bullets I could spin the bullet in the case with my fingers. I have never had this issue before and can’t figure out why the necks...

So what did you end up with for your load? I have just ordered some 178AH for my 300wm and an looking for advice.

This may not be the correct thread for this question but with the lower bullet weight (copper vs lead) and increased velocity from the Absolutes, will barrels be burned out faster? It seems like light and fast was a thing of the past then we went to heavy and slowed down. Are we making full...

Thanks everyone for the input and help, that's why I come here for information. Appreciate!

That sounds like an easy plan to me. Would you ever run into an issue with detachable mags or Wyatt's extended mag allowing the bullet to be too long and be "jammed"?
