[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2664511, member: 313"] I've hunted with "new brass" ammo but it's not my preference for long range. I shoot all of my reloads over a chronograph while looking for that one tack-driving load. One thing that I noticed is that ammo fired with new brass often has higher SDs than the same ammo fired with a case that has been previously fired in the rifle and properly resized. I have some new brass that measures .007" less at the datum point than once fired brass. There can be a lot of movement in a new case when being fired for the first time. [/QUOTE]
