Some cases are on their 7th reloading cycle with no problems, the most accurate loads in all my rifles isn't far of the start loads for the powders I use which no doubt helps case life.I have started annealing them on the 5th reload as I find it helps with consistent neck tension.These are PPU cases, I have a load of Sellier and Bellot cases that are on their 2nd reloading cycle so far.Asgard wrote:How many reloads do you get for the 54R Snayperskaya?
Do you do the full lenght size or you keep ammo for the specific gun separate? And do the neck only
I check the length of each case every time they are fired and so far I've only had to trim some of them once, and it was only a gnats dick hair that was trimmed off.I full length resize as I can't be bothered to keep seperate rounds for each rifle.
I also shoot milsurp through them, currently have Russian (L, LPS and tracer, both T-46 and T-46-M), Hungarian (LPS and tracer, T-46-M), Chinese (LPS), Egyptian (light ball) and Bulgarian (light and heavy ball)
