No i deer Posted March 1, 2018 Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 I've been prepping 100 new cases as the weather stopped my work today. Uniforming the primer pockets is hard work.there are a tight fit and it' hard to keep hold the cases preventing it from slipping.are they always this tight...? As Ive started I will finish them.i am thinking it would of been better to do them after there first firing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gun Pimp Posted March 1, 2018 Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 Yes - it's best to do the primer-pockets AFTER the first firing. If you do it on un-fired brass, as you say, they are tight and you risk opening them up slightly - which you don't want to do as slack primer pockets will often be the reason you scrap your brass after a few firings.

No i deer Posted March 2, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 Thanks Vince.i will abandon the pocket uniforming then.ive never known them this tight before but I've never used new Norma brass before.at £1.50 per case they need to last .Norma must of made them that fraction smaller to help against loose pockets.
