I used one of those and it worked perfectly, and all I used was loctite. I didn't shoot thousands, but I did shoot hundreds and no issues. I suspect poor prep work is the cause of problems, it's always about the prep.Have heard of these coming out -
(Adapter to shoot 7.62x39 in 7.62x45 chambered rifles) — anyone familiar with a more secure method of keeping these in place other than loctite?
Removing rims and adding an extractor grove to brass has been know to result in ruptured cases, lost extractors, blown receivers, and other nasty problems that take you to the emergency room.I have pulled them out from several rifles after they have caused someone many headaches. There is lots of surplus 7.62x45 ammo out there albeit expensive. I mostly just take 220 swift brass and turn down the rim and deepen the extractor groove, trim, size and reload. But of course, I'm not normal
I also reload Berdan stuff in all odd calibers. If anyone has the early 7.62x45 in brass case that is fired, I'll buy the brass from them.
