[QUOTE="Lenny Foffa, post: 2264643, member: 100742"] I should have added that My 270 Win Hunting loads, I hold the Difference in case weight to 3/10ths of a grain, for Hunting Loads. So I have Blue boxes for 20 to 30 cases of 186.0 to 186.3 then I86.4 to 186 .9 ect. I have .270 Win cases in the 184.0 to 184.9 range: the 185.0 to 185.9 range : the 186 .0 to 186.9 range, and even some orphans in the 187 and 188 case range. This is big spread , I think. Each range has its own Blue box, Of Course I don't like that , I have similar issues within the slightly heavier Remington cases , as well as even heavier Federal cases. Regardless of brand, I still do all the steps I mentioned in my last post in this thread. I expect to get only between 4 to 6 Loads per batch. I keep my load the same until I use Brass that is in the 187.0 to 188.0 gran range , then I reduce it slightly . In my ignorance, I do not know know the benefit of more expensive , heavier Brass. To be clear, in 25 plus years of loading I have never had any negative issue with the cheaper Win Brass in 270 Win. for Hunting loads, in my rifles or my friends . Perhaps the better heavier Brass would allow for more reloading's per case??? [/QUOTE]
