[QUOTE="11 Charlie, post: 999091, member: 80172"] I pick a lot of brass at the range I frequent as the range officers are great guys and friends. I get all the brass I'll ever need for all my guns except my .300 WBY. I had never found any in the range buckets but a couple weeks ago I had a couple seconds elation as at first glance I saw the familiar Weatherby shoulder on some cases. Then I noticed extremely short necks. You probably have guessed it already as I new what it was before I looked at the head stamp. Somebody had fired .300 WIN MAG out of a .300 WBY. While that was bad enough, after going through buckets on the 50 and 100 yard lanes, I found 30 CASES this guy had fired. Half or so of them had blackened shoulders with up to 6 ruptures in them. As we know mistakes can happen to the best of us but how don't you notice in 30 rounds? Moron is to kind of a description! [/QUOTE]
