[QUOTE="LRHWAL, post: 98325, member: 5418"] Bart is right. The pistol guys get slightly better relaibility with nickel because of the slicker finish. How do you preform various of the precision relaoding steps on nickel plated caese? Neck turning (if you do that)being a prime example. What I don't like is that the finish comes off / sometimes peels and scratches and leaves sharp edges (although the modern stuff is no doubt slightly better). If you scratch nickel, chances are it'll scratch your dies. In that vein check this out: [url="http://www.redding-reloading.com/techlinepages/scratchedcases.htm"]http://www.redding-reloading.com/techlinepages/scratchedcases.htm[/url] (see point 5).
