[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2681193, member: 15054"] Now for the results!!!!! 45 reloads on this Lapua .308 brass and it is game over. I used a Lee die Full Length Sizer die each time..This die has been honed .0005-.001" and polished. Just to not size down my case body as much. Now I shot it 14 times then trimmed I took .024" off of it to bring it back to 2.008" Then I shot it until the round count was 35 and trimmed .024" off to bring it back to 2.008" I would take 0000 steel wool and clean carbon off the neck and hand brush the inside then lube inside the case neck with Hornady Unique case lube. And outside got the same then FLS and then I would wipe off the case lube with paper towel. I would also clean the lube from inside the case neck with a Q Tip. I shot round 35-45 at a 100 yard target 11 total rounds I forgot to swab the neck inside once and poured in the scooped measured Varget that resulted in granules sticking inside the neck. I seen it before I inserted the bullet.. so I took a clean Q Tip and cleaned the neck and pushed the stuck powder down on top of the other powder. This blew my group!!! That shot went high and right... Wind was blowing during this test 5-15 mph but at 100 yards I feel this did not screw the results too much. This is getting long winded so here is a pic of the last 11 shots fired at 100 yards scooped measured not weighed.Yea I said that already. Edit: I used 210m and cci 200 primers for that last 100 yard group you see [ATTACH=CONFIG]44531[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
