I'm about to turn 500 pieces of new Lapua 308 brass, and wanted to make sure I'm not crazy.
My plan was to dip the necks in motor oil, run them over the mandrel, and toss them on the neck turning lathe.
My turner (powered 21st lathe) has the ability to turn into the shoulder, but since the brass is new and the shoulders not consistent, I figured I'd just turn them by sight, stopping short of the shoulder.
Given the current state of affairs I don't really want to waste the componets to fire the brass before I turn them. I'd rather get it out of the way now.
Anyone see any issues with this? If you do it, does it cause you any problems getting inconsistent AZTEC codes from your AMP?
Thanks,
Mike
