Just got in my new dies this afternoon. Typical initial setup, run the shell holder up, run the die down until it just kisses the shell holder.

Took my first 5 pieces of clean fired brass, took a...

But at least now you are absolutely sure the cases are in good order....... :D Sorry.......

I asked the same question regarding some Lapua brass. Was told to inspect for out of round necks from shipping. If no issues, load and go. Follow the regular procedures after you get a firing on them.

No. Not married yet. Just so happens I have an appointment at Bova Diamonds tomorrow afternoon to look at some raw cut rocks. My days are numbered that's for sure.

Just what I need..... a .338 LM Semi to go with my .338 LM Bolt. Already getting setup to reload. Don't think I would mind the extra work loading for two.
