[QUOTE="del2les, post: 2257341, member: 9299"] If brass is a challenge to acquire and loaded ammo is your only other option, it is ok, but personally, I have loaded many first time, very precise handloads in numerous calibers/cartridges with new brass. Does it improve slightly after fireforming? "Most" of the time, yes, but that is not to say the original load developments were not very to extremely acceptable. I can recall several initial fireforming loads that maintained 1/2 MOA and under, and in some varmint/target rifles and loads, much better. Winchester factory loads would not be my first choice, but if it is all you can find, it is better than throwing rocks. [/QUOTE]
