[QUOTE="Slick8, post: 2091106, member: 52585"] Study some on it, fireforming isn't hard at all. Due to the time expense and barrel wear I'd only do it with top shelf brass in hopes of best life and consistency. Read up on the subject but I believe 270 win and 280 rem will be your best brass choices. If you use 25 or 30-06 they may be too short for your needs. Also, it sounds like you're sourcing assorted brass. If so, it could effect your ES and worst case if loaded hot could be dangerous due to differences in internal capacity from one make to the next. My opinion, source 25-100 rounds of the same make and lot in 270 or 280, buy some cheap bullets and have fun fireforming. [/QUOTE]
