The next thing to spend money on

#1 Postby PeteFox » Tue Aug 10, 2021 5:22 pm

Cases that aren't brass with but with similar ballistics to brass but using 10% less powder.
Looks like it has steel case head insert
Who's going to be first?
Looks like an interesting idea to think about during lockdown

It certainly looks interesting, but my 27 step case prep system is giving me something to do during lockdown.

I think it would be interesting trying to resize those case necks, and at $10 per round you'd want to be able to do it 100 times. Your 27 steps might get blown out a bit

The ultimate in 21st century waste, imagine those things scattered all over a rifle range as there's not much incentive to pick them up if they're not reloadable.
A bit like plastic shotgun wads everywhere.

You just make sure you're good to go for the World's in 2032 Rod! By then you'll be shooting in full BA gear...
