[QUOTE="DUSTY NOGGIN, post: 1663142, member: 89550"] just remember your not turning to remove brass . just to equal em all around . try too keep as much material as possible sometimes you end up dropping the cutter a little more that .014 just to have some cases left to reload though.. .0125 is about as thin as i like to go ( although a .014 skim pass that ends up at 100% cut on all brass is best ) IME .. remington brass has about 30 out of a hundred that end up getting sorted out winchester brass has a much higher kill rate .. it has been to have to cut down to .013 sometimes just to keep enough to load a batch .. but sometimes you gotta make due with the brass you have the norma i tried .. was very good with only having 2 out of 50 that didnt get a 100% cutt .. i used those for dummy rounds nosler was the best brand that i have experienced when using new brass. i could have easily not turned them.. they were fine just the way they were.. BUT .the brass that came out of a box of factory nosler ammo had thinmer necks than the bew brass. once you cut one to cut em all .. all 70 came out good point is, do alot of testing to find the highest keep rate with some that didnt make the cut .. so you know your cutting the least amount possible .. i try to pick about 10 peices and keep running the cutter down to get a feel for those 10 and stop when 2 of those 10 samples show a 90% cut ..then lock that cutter down and do the whole batch including the 10 testers ther is minor dropping of cutter when you lock all the set screws down [/QUOTE]
