[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 2021997, member: 307"] What is the rifle? I ask because, just last night, I was resizing some 270 Win brass and a box (20rds) of R P that someone gave me would not resize without getting stuck. I didn't get any stuck but I could tell if I pushed it they would have. I was measuring all the brass off the datum line and these were at least .010" longer than any of the other brass I was processing. I tried several, lubing the inside of the necks and the case body but to no avail. As I set there pondering what to do I was spinning the case body in my fingers and could feel ridges, not out of round but several ridges that ran the length of the body. Neck and shoulder felt fine. Made me think the cases had been stretched during the firing/extraction process. Not to offend anyone but I figured a Browning BAR shooter may have given them to me. Not sure though. Either way, I tossed them and kept on prep'n. [/QUOTE]
