Re: Uniformity of LR primer pockets
a lot of folk regard S&B 303 cases as disposable. I'm not sure if it's still the case, but there was certainly a period when they would split and seperate on repeated sizings and firings. It seemed to be limited to that caliber. Your mileage may vary, but thought it was worth saying.Mauserbill wrote: ↑Wed Jun 21, 2023 7:33 am Hello
There was a bit of conjecture regarding swaging and primer pocket uniformer.
My problems were that my S&B 303 cases were extremely in most instances difficult to seat the standard LR primer unless you had the wrists and hands of the orangutan. Using a RCBS pocket swager I found that by applying the swager to the pocket, my LR primers loaded with ease.
Thanks Alpha1
