[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2434205, member: 109862"] I’ve never had an issue with it in my .300 win, 270, or 243. Just keep an eye on the case mouth for flaking off effects, if it’s doing that or just “looks rough” - you’ll know - don’t use it. I wouldn’t be trying to get a ton of loads out of it for bulk shooting, but for dedicated hunting/field cartridges the benefit of being resistant to the elements and slippery as all get out is there. Sometime I plan on loading up some .300 win “make sure” rounds. I have some 180 federal trophy bonded tips, some new Remington nickel plated brass. Gonna load it with with a temp insensitive powder, 7977, and probably not right to full pressure, stop at 3000 fps. Seal the primer and case mouth, a weather proof bonded core load. [/QUOTE]
