Might have to talk to some of you guys who buy ammo and do not reload. But July and Aug. are for some reason typically real tight months for me. So buying once fired brass aint going to happen till Sept. or Oct. So keep your brass and drop me a note in a few months if you have some brass to unload. With me having a tight chamber, buying commercial rounds just aint going to happen. I have to trim all of my brass throats down to about .019" Most brass I have seen can run anywhere from .019" to .024" on the same case.
Thanks in advance for keeping me in mind. |

Max-Paul,
I have same concern/issue since re-barreling and chambering with a 0.554" neck ..... and 1400 surplus rounds in stock on my shelves. Sometimes I look for shooters to shoot my surplus ammo so I get a lot size of 150 pieces for reworking to match-brass specifications. I am working on a switch barrel for my AR-50 so I can switch barrels as needed for chamber size needs. |

Do you know why the necks vary so much? Look inside a case with a flashlight and see if it was punched straight or off center.
I've found that if you look inside and they've been punched off center, the necks are off also. I think the brass is only good for plinking, if it's that far off how do fix the whole case? |

Ok, I can see what your saying 50_Shooter. Now if the whole case is thinner on one side. That side can fail sooner. But with trimming the neck, the neck will expand evenly and release the bullet more truly. Not real sure how that would effect the case body expanding to the chamber walls. Always learning 50, what is your take on the body of the brass expanding to the chamber walls? |

You can true the necks and when fired, the case will expand to the chamber. The case body will always be thinner on one side.
I've just wondered about that issue and how much stress will be put on the neck and shoulder area when fired the first time and after. Not sure if annealing would help the problem any. I wonder how match brass is made to avoid this? I think it was IK brass I checked that had a flat floor on the inside of the case. It had very little variance in the case, so they must use a different method to draw and punch the brass. |
