[QUOTE="lever-hed, post: 916698, member: 11667"] First question; is this ‘new batch’ of brass ‘once fired’ in your rifle, or a diff rifle? Think why won’t it chamber? Because it was hot-loaded? Is the brass thinning on walls or is there a possibility of case head separation, (do the scratch test). Is the case head bulging, is the headspace way over? Rcbs is what I’ve used forever, it always seems to work well, and I’ve come across some brass that was dirty and/or tarnished enough that it felt like it froze up in the redding sb body die, but a smidgeon more of this worked out fine. Not to mention you have ‘other’ brass, so its going to be a chore to FL size those..and you should FL especially if its not fired in your gun.. you have to lube the inside necks too, or simply remove the expander ball, you’ll definitely be getting a work out sounds like, just be careful not too much is on shoulders its possible to over-bump the shoulders or create ripples.. might even want to run that brass through a pond of ISOSSO first. Good luck [/QUOTE]
