[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 792828, member: 35183"] I did some research and apparently the LR brass is the "good stuff" (sniper ammo). The primers on the LR are not crimped. So that is good. For some reason, apparently this ammo must have been rejected and the bullets pulled and the powder dumped. There is a little tar like substance in the case neck that has to be removed with Xylene (bullet sealer). I will probably clean the necks, then weight sort it and then go from there. If I rework the mandrels in my neck sizer so that it is really only for neck sizing and not also for decapping, then it should speed up the task of correcting the necks since this is unfired brass. I should probably invest in a universal decapping die.. [/QUOTE]
