Inspect Your Brass!

 



I bet I've had this .303 brass on hand, unopened, for at least ten years. Components that have accumulated are being assembled, and that means every case is scrutinized. This one was a surprise. It should have been caught at the factory, but I have wrecked a few myself in forty years of loading, and one case is not worth worrying about.  Anyhow, if you are catching up on loading, be meticulous. Check for stretch on rifle cases. Check length after sizing. Do not exceed published loads. Use hard primers for semi autos.
