[QUOTE="Tidus56, post: 1399942, member: 104495"] I have picked up range brass that has only made it 5 firings, but brass I purchased off the shelf I have never ruined one yet. I have some 6.5 creedmoor with 8 and some 270 with 10. I anneal after every other firing and trim when needed. I would suggest quality brass like lapua, they will pay for themselves with the additional times you can load them. I don't shoot near as much as some of the people on here, most of my shooting is coyote hunting, prairie dogging, the occasional rifle hunt and long range shooting. How much shooting will you be doing a year? If you're shooting a lot, I would make the transition to bump sizing down the road. For now getting the basics down solid and learning how to do load development would be a great start. If you have any questions as you're reloading you can PM me and I'll do my best to help you. Good luck. PS, I no longer pick up range brass to reload, I pick it up to trade with people for new brass. [/QUOTE]
