Howa Mini Extractor/Headspace Issue
#9
My case prep has evolved over past year as COVID has given me time and yet nowhere to go so I've been forced to come up with obscure ways to keep myself sane. I have spent a lot of time on case forming, load development and testing for a couple of wildcats. The end result is that everything is now getting annealed, and I am only using the expander ball in resize dies for bulk brass for plinking (ie AR15 brass to iron out dented case mouths). Everything else is getting the FL Resize (no expander) and then Expander Mandrel for consistent neck tension. It's an easy step that really does make a difference.

A friends claims that these changes to his case prep have helped his 300BO to shoot 1.5" at 300 yards... proper neck tension. I hear this is considered mud flinging amongst Grendel fans!!!
