[QUOTE="TG-5150, post: 1533851, member: 103379"] In another thread I commented on something very similar. In the 7-08 A.I. I have fire formed 2-3 boxes of each “major brand” of brass. I don’t have extended reloading experience with Hornady brass, I will say it fire forms well and is only on its second reload after fire forming. No problems so far, have wondered if it’s because the A.I. chamber masks or hides the pressures. Theses loads aren’t hot but are definitely warm. Rem. brass has always worked for in the past. I have a lot of experience with Lake City .308 brass and am thinking hard on necking it down and fireforming. The .308 my Ackley became got 10-12 reloads out of that brass and still looks good. Varget powder and very warm 165 gr. Loads. The cost of once fired LC brass compaired to the 3 top dog brass manufacturers has me questioning the $ they want for there brass. [/QUOTE]
