[QUOTE="nicholasjohn, post: 1969821, member: 109113"] I used to know an old gent who had a couple of 55-gallon barrels full of this brass, and he used it to form darn near everything he shot. He shot a 30-06, but also loaded 22-250 & 25-06 ( long before either was a factory-loaded round ) 270, 257 Roberts and 7 X 57. Everybody in his family and circle of friends had him load their ammo, back when the Sierra soft-points were the only bullets anybody in the neighborhood used. Those folks shot truck-loads of deer & woodchucks in that corner of Pennsylvania ( he lived up around Punxsutawney ) as well as a few foxes and an occasional black bear. This guy was a retired tool & die maker, and he made his own tools for prepping his brass. He liked doing this stuff, and the precision work was his therapy for working off the worries of the world. I wish he was still around, because I think I could learn a lot from him about loading, and about brass preparation in particular. [/QUOTE]
