[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1180862, member: 4191"] If I could place all bullets into one hole with the new brass, and I couldn't develop a comparable load with fired brass, I suppose I'd consider buying new brass just for the single firing. But I suspect you'll be able to duplicate the bugholes on target if you work at it for a bit. Like Mikecr says... load development. Give it some additional effort. Differing powder charges and bullet seating depths first. Then maybe different powders. After that if it'll only shoot them all into the same hole with new brass - well I'd be tempted and willing to run new brass for the few rounds I send into large game animals on a yearly basis. But what happens with a different lot of brass? I doubt your rifle is so finicky that you won't find a load you can be happy with using fired brass. [/QUOTE]
