    Turned 500 pcs of 308 brass into 260 brass for a buddy in Texas. Next step is to wet tumble them clean, touch the necks with the Giraud trimmer then anneal the necks.

    For me I think the big gain is a slight jump in BC but a much more consistent BC without trimming meplats.
    Have you ever tried to fill the cavity?

    A friend pointed some Berger 140 VLD's for me, shot out of my 6.5x47. 7% increase in BC. BC increase is not the whole story. Loaded a 10rd mag, alternated between pointed/un-pointed, shot on paper at 550yds, two targets. The pointed bullets had half the vertical.

    Finally finished sorting 6k+ 9mm brass. For the second time.
    What a pain in the arse.
    Bucket is all WIN, WCC, FC, FEDERAL, R-P, Speer, Starline, PMC. etc.
    Coffee can(s) is PPU, GFL, GECO, S&B, CBC/Magtech, etc..
    Also found a few .380, 9mm Mak, Ammoland and berdan cases missed the first time.

    That doesn't mean "stairs are bad" nor does it make someone who pushes someone down the stairs any less of an asshole.

    Processed (roll sized, FL resized and removed primer crimp) about 2,000 9mm cases last night for a shooter that lives in Idaho Springs.

    Tonight I have a 5 gallon bucket of 9mm brass to roll size for a local shooter.

    Loaded my last 150 rounds of 40, and primed about 300 more.

    Loaded up a ladder of 110gr AMAX over H110 300BLK last night. Have more to do today but work getting in the way. So much for PTO.

    I really need to get an electronic scale. I use the lee discs for loading all the spherical powders and a drop charge for stick powders, but these workups are slow going with a beam scale.

    Yes, Lee discs are EVIL, and hell-spawn. It's like "one size fits none". Beam scales are better, digital scales are better. But, follow the instructions for calibrating. You will never look back.
