    See for yourself about soft brass, primer flow, primer flattening, head stamp flattening, extractor marks, etc. etc.

    Brass prep is a PITA!
    Thanks, I'll plan on doing that. If I have time this week I plan to load up my first few rounds of 308.

    And on a somewhat totally unrelated note, one of my packages has a eta of Friday, which is odd, because I thought that genre of things had to be overnighted or 2nd day air shipped, not 4 day regular UPS Ground. And the last 2 that I bought were shipped 2nd day air (double checked the tracking on those). Stinks, probably won't be able to pick it up until next week. :/

    eta: Just looked it up, shorter versions are overnight, but their longer counterparts can be shipped ups ground.

    Here's what I have:

    This is a newer version than mine. I haven't ripped a DVD in probably 5 years or so.

    Just load up to the proper specs, as far as COAL. That way you have an even baseline.

    Thanks! I'm trying a rip with it now.. Seems much faster than HandBrake already. I just hope I can get it to play on my pad.

    Freaking HandBrake just failed again.... I've been waiting an hour and it wont open in VLC, quicktime, anything..

    Will do, unfortunately I don't have a 308 trimmer yet, so I'll just be loading the cases you sent as is for this test.

    And that listing of brass earlier was my 223 brass collection, not the 308 cases.
