Interesting.  Glad you asked the question alank2.

I was prompted to ask because of the 10mm reloading issues I ran into, see my thread at another forum for creased cases and a mid case vertical split in brand new starline nickel brass using a mid power level load.

I am surprised that there isn't more consistency to this, you would think there would be an ideal size and that manufacturers would stick to that.

I've never had these types of problems with any other cartridge I've loaded before (even when I loaded 10mm before a few years ago)...  I'm swapping the nickel for some regular brass with Starline and I'm changing my reloading plan to lee bulge bust a fired case and then only sizing the case area where bullet tension is needed.

Thanks,

Alan

Hi,

I have a Redding Pro series TiC die that sizes to 0.4165 to 0.417 and a Lee carbide die that sizes to 0.418.  Out of curiosity what does your die size brass to?

Thanks,

Alan
