    AMP Aztec setting

    Good Morning fellow shooters, Does anyone have an AZTEC setting for Petersen 284 brass? I can't get to the lot number I'm using right now, though. I bought it last fall. Thanks for any response. George V.
  2. New reloaded inspecting brass

    Hey all, I'm new to the game as I'm sure tons of others are during these strange times. I'm inspecting my brass, specifically .223, and there's these scratches on the neck. Being so new im not sure if I should reject them or just run them, any input would be great! Thanks!!
  3. 204 Ruger cases won't fit even after FL sizing

    I have two 204 Ruger rifles and just fired over a hundred rounds in my 700 Remington. Now after resizing, they won't chamber in either my savage or Remington. I have measured the based, the shoulder and the length, some are over length a bit. Has anyone experienced this. The Redding Tech...
  4. Rifle Brass Sorting Experiment - Part Two

    Hey folks! I published the second article in my series about sorting rifle brass. In this installment, I explain how I microstamped my brass to keep track of it over its lifespan, even through 24 hours of tumbling with stainless media. This method allows you to sort once by weight or other...

    Have you ever done it?

    While loading to fireform some 220 Russian brass to 6PPC I loaded with powder and it was almost to the top of the neck, it shot really well and fireformed perfectly. Then I go to reload the fireformed brass and it's not even at the bottom of the neck and I'm looking like what the heck!! Then I...
  7. Norma Brass from 223 Tactical FMJ

    I purchased some bulk brass from a police range and it came with a bunch of Norma brass and I'm wondering if I lucked out. Is the brass Norma uses in their tactical line of ammunition the same stuff we used to pay $60/100?
  8. Rifle Brass Sorting Experiment - Part One

    Hey everyone! I published the first part of an ongoing experiment which explores the relationship between the weight and volume of rifle brass. https://blog.ammolytics.com/2020-01-08/brass-sorting-part-one.html The results were pretty interesting, and I was surprised by a few of the findings...
  9. First loads in brand new brass

    I have some brand new Lapua brass in 6.5 Creedmoor that I'm going to load for firing in my Tikka T3x CTR 20". I've never used Lapua brass in this gun, only Hornady. I have read that the first firing in virgin brass can yield different results than subsequent firings. Should I treat the...
  10. Brass for testing seating depth of ram priming unit

    I have mounted my press and want to test the seating depth of my RCBS ram prime unit. Do I need to use the brass I intend to reload, or will any 308 brass work? Might be a dumb question, but thought it was worth asking. Thx in advance

  12. Magnum brass

    Hey guys, I'm having a long range stick built in 7mm mag. I've settled on Norma brass for my reloads, but can't find anything in stock. Lapua, norma and nosler can't be found anywhere! Was there a run on brass that i missed?
  13. 17-204 brass

    Hello all, I am building new toy for my 1st time and was curious if someone could help me out. I’m building a 17-204 from a Stiller action and lilja barrel. Does anyone have some 17-204 brass they could send me to fire form and get a custom for made. This seems to be the most effective way...
  14. another tumbling media?

    I've generally used 1/4" corn cob media for tumbling, with Iosso polish (Polish?) as my best bet. I moved from The People's Socialist Republik of Kalifornia to Arizona (Where Free men live!) in the East PHX Valley, and cannot find a single supplier for either the cob nor ANY kind of brass...

    Alpha SRP 308 brass evaluation This is an evaluation of Alpha Small Rifle Primer (SRP) brass that I purchased in April of 2018.

    Like the title says if you were to rank the top 5 brass manufacturers how would your list go?
  17. Neck turning and Annealing

    Disclaimer Once again, I’m still new to reloading and long range shooting so forgive my ignorance. I just read an article on here that essentially said you neck turn if your brass is to tight but also so you have consistent neck tension. I was thinking about the responses I received from my...
  18. Annealing

    I’ve searched the web and can’t find an answer to the following question: How much longer does brass last when you regularly anneal (after every firing or every few firings) vs never annealing. I know there are some variables at play here but just looking for a in general type answer. As far as...
  19. LC M852 Brass

    Ran into a guy with a few wood cases of some 90 and 89 stamped LC Match. They all appear to have a dent about 2/3 of the way up the case, I'm assuming from a belt fed? Does anybody know what a good/fair price to pay for about 4K brass would be? (I'll get some pictures up when i fugure out mu...
  20. New Dasher Brass from bullets.com

    Like an idiot I decided to give the dasher brass from bullets.com a try... again! Here's how they describe it: This extra-sturdy brass is the new and improved version featuring a normal rim thickness that fits your standard shell holder! Unlike the first drop of the brass, it DOES fit into the...
