Rus14 0 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 i heard that soft brass gets dented upon the ejection against the dust cover. Can someone please recommend a load that reduced the dinged brass? i am planning to load for a SAIGA in 308. much appreciated Quote Link to post Share on other sites
acercanto 6 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Dip all your cases in hot rubber. That way when they hit the charging handle, they'll bounce off instead of getting dented. Seriously dude, I think you're doing it backwards. Just put a little section of fuel line over your charging handle, or dip it in that liquid rubber for tool handles. The force will dent pretty much any case, not just the softer brass ones, even steel Wolf. Not trying to rain on your parade, just seems kinda roundabout, Acer Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You must always remember that the load charts you see have been compiled after 1000's of rounds have been fired. If you want free online loading data go to: http://data.hodgdon.com/main_menu.asp You can get free data for Hodgdon, IMR or Winchester powders. louielouie Quote Link to post Share on other sites
