[QUOTE="slikmrc, post: 2216801, member: 116436"] I used Nickel plated 300 Weatherby brass for fouling loads on a load test. Shot the brass 10 times with no issues. They were loaded with 80 grains of 7828 and a 180 grain bullet, this is .5 grains below the starting load in the Nosler manual. Federal primer pockets are a little larger at the case base than Nosler and Weatherby brass, a 210 pin will just start to seat in a new case. After 10 firings a .2095 pin gauge will seat quite a ways, a .210 gauge goes about a third of the way into the pocket. Didn't have any primers leak, I was using Federal 215 primers. [/QUOTE]
