I am back. Thanks for the wishes guys. Turned out I was home for Christmas. Well, I was in town anyway. I was at the squadron helping getting people shipped out.

AMC = Air Mobility Command or Always Miss Christmas...

Seeing as how I was working Christmas day, I took yesterday off to shoot some 600-1100 yard steel with two of my more quiet toys.

Back at you.

I just got my 199 pieces of ancient 5.56 military brass back from reworking with Hoser.

Great job, great price, and incredible turnaround (and they sure look purdy, too!).

I'd highly recommend his services to anyone with .223 or 5.56 brass hanging around, that shoots our round-with-many-names.

Just to bring some important info to the top...

4. Enclose a note in the box telling me how to provide you a tracking number.
5. Let me know ahead of time that I have brass headed my way.

Sized/processed brass will not work. The trimmer die I use needs to be able to hold on to the case while the trimmer blade does the work. If the case has been resized, the case just spins inside the die. If the cutter grabs on and tears off a big chunk of brass and locks things up, it will destroy a $250 Dillon trimmer motor.

I also need a way to contact you. Please put a note of some sort in the box...

More than a few times this past month I have just got boxes of brass with a money order inside. I have no idea how to get you a tracking number or even let you know I received your shipment.

I have also had people send me resized brass. it wont work and does not save me any time or you any $$$. My machine de-primes, swages out the primer crimp, resizes and trims all in one step.

I have lots and lots of brass on hand and ready to ship. Maybe 13-15K as of tonight.

Learned a very important lesson tonight.

The 300 Whisper/Blackout is a very short case.

I did 1,000 pcs of brass for a customer and when he went to load them he ran into some issues.

When he ran them into his Forester resize die he was tearing the necks completely off. Not good.

I tried to figure out why, but was stumped. All the brass gauged good before I shipped it.

After some stressing and fretting, I figured it out.

If you have the expander ball adjusted too high it can end up in the neck portion of the die. Now you have the die trying to squish the neck down and the ball trying to expand it out. The poor case gets stuck in the middle.

Just a public service announcement...
