so so far i have bought a master mechanic no 3 and no 5 (which i have no problem owning, these things always come in handy) but True Value is currently out of no 4! Which it turns out is most likely the one i need! Ha! To town tomorrow again to see if ace has one....
Always the way ain't it. I had to get some 1/2 NPT galvanize pipe nipples and a 90* end to install my new shower/tub spigot this week. Experience has taught me that at about $1.50 each its cheaper to buy several lengths of varying lengths rather than pay the gas to go back when you "thought" you had the right one. Nothing you can do when they are out of that one size you need, no matter what it is. Good luck.Quote:

I might be able to double my case life when its ackleyd. its also my cheapest rifle to shoot, even cheaper than buying 22 ammo well almost. I can roughly, get at least 800 rounds out of a lb of powder. However i haven't loaded that many yet in my lifetime! haha.
Congrats on getting the brass out. One thing to do to prevent case seperation is to make a
Congrats on fixing your problem. One thing to do on hornet brass, is to make an L shaped pick, use it to feel around on the inside of the case, near the bottom, if you feel a groove that brass is about to separate.
ok i know exactly what you are talking about, grandpa used to have one for our 7mm Mags. So what do you do with the bad hornet brass? not shoot it?
