[QUOTE="elj1973, post: 1714213, member: 106376"] Newer reloader here and I need some advice on using virgin Hornady brass after a load work up with 2X fired Hornady brass that was FL sized, shoulder bumped .002 with a neck tension set at .002 with a mandrel. My goal is to stay in the same velocity and accurcy node. Am I going to have to increase the powder charge? And if so how much with the virgin brass.What kind of velocity drop should I be prepared for? See below for load specs. Thanks in advance. Remington 700 5R Gen II Grayboe stock, bedded Timmey Trigger Load data: 6.5 CM 143 Eld-x H4350 41.5 gr. 2x fired Hornady brass, FL sized and bumped .002 Neck tension. 002 Case trim to 1.912 COAL 2.810 .060 off lands CCI 200 primer AVG FPS 2722 ES 10 SD 3 Not a barnburner load but I stopped cause of the accuracy!! This is the 5 shot 200 yard group with the above load.[ATTACH=full]149723[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
