[QUOTE="243winxb, post: 2050554, member: 97793"] Best brass i have is Black Hills Match that was given to me. I neck turn it for a bolt action. The problem with cheap ammo is they skip some of the annealing during production. The neck may work harden & crack. Dies that over work necks seems to be the cause. Had 100 PMC brass that came from factory ammo. 97 of them had neck splits after the 2nd reloading/firing. My old fl die is dated 1979. The new is only a few years old. Both RCBS over work the necks.
