Case Trimming

I try to prep all my cases the same and NEVER assume that new cases are OK to load. I FL resize new cases, measure them and use my old Herter's case trimmer with the correct pilot (it is just like the newer Forster trimmer). I deburr each case and measure them all again before loading.

I have had new brass from various manufacturers (especially lately with the shortages) and have found some cases with burrs, dents and out of square case mouths. So I correct all the cases BEFORE I start reloading.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock

Hello there. I’ve been wanting to introduce myself personally & chat with you about hunting Nilgai. Give me a call sometime…
