[QUOTE="Swamplord, post: 1273928, member: 2460"] Speaking of "truth" .... Mr. Seaman , how about you practice it, It can be good for the soul ... and what "camps" has your divisive nature separated long range shooters into ? I thought we were all in this together to better the sport of long range shooting and hunting , The truth was posted and you continue to ignore it and insert yourself into the "deal" of forming 500 for 500 pcs of brass between Ed Hubel and myself, which was called off/canceled by Ed Hubel and posted on this very forum and on his personal Facebook page, that is known to all and old news ... please stop spreading lies, is it too much to ask for ? And For the last time..... there never was any "collaboration" regarding the 375 Warlord, you know it, Ed Hubel knows it..... It was my development and mine alone, Mr. Hubel tried to take and steer something that did not belong to him and my intention was to leave the 375 Warlord in it's wildcat status, where it remains and is still available to whoever wants to build one, my involvement with Ed Hubel was to release it to the public at his request so he can expedite the sale of his 585 HE brass, which was his main concern and something he made very clear in our phone conversations and emails ....... The need to sell his brass is the driving force and purpose behind all this drama ..... The truth you need to reveal also is how you took my dimensions and sized everything up larger to gain a few grains of capacity in order to proclaim a "better" cartridge .... well, the jokes on you boss , by enlarging the top of body you create issues with extraction, the longer case length is obviously in the neck, well, anything over 3.3" long is nothing but splits/cracks and uneven serrated case mouth created from flaring out during the neck down process from .585 to .375, it is not preventable and needs to be trimmed off to prevent case necks splitting under regular loads, the problem is magnified by using less steps to size case neck down , another problem is created by sizing cases so they drop in chamber to be fired off the belt, when you size a case so far down as to create a large headspace gap between shoulder datum on case vs chamber, firing off belt with full loads and bullet you create the onset of case head separation where the entire case moves forward and stretches/thins the area just ahead of the belt where it was already thinned and weakened by the belt forming and squeezing the hard case head down in diameter process, these were the key concerns I had regarding the 585 HE brass and designed the 375 Warlord to be fireformed off a die formed case with a solid crush fit of shoulder against chamber to prevent tearing the case body from the case head, and this is done with a charge of pistol powder and cream of wheat method where only the top of body fills out against the chamber without stretching/altering the case just past the belt .... once case is formed with "proper" headspace then when you fire full power loads the case head separation issue is halted for more firings on the case, the belt and the use of it is the biggest problem with the 375 HE coupled with the 30 degree shoulder angle that will allow the case to grow outwards further pulling the case apart ..... by all means proceed and when a bunch of guys build guns and run into problems you will be forced to redesign and scale back your dimensions , the cool part is they can always set the barrel back and rechamber to the original design that has already solved all those issues ..... the 375 Warlord reamer IS AVAILBLE from JGS, Manson and PT&G ..... just holler at me if you need one at [email]merc375@outlook.com[/email] [/QUOTE]
