I must admit, I do not know any of these terms;

"Ti-Ni coated bushings" Titanium Nitride - Redding, Hornady, CH-4D and not doubt others bushings and dies. Its the latest fashion flavour of the month to get people to buy new dies.

"internal sizing button" Is that the "bulb" on the decapping pin? Yes

Shows how long, and how much I reload :oops:

Just to be pedantic the acronym for titanium nitride is 'TiN'

Yup me too, nothing new there though, half the time when Dromia speaks I have to look for a translator and on here I have to Google the majority of the words he writes.

Not only is he a clever sod, he is also from the north... :lol:

Luckily he has a lovely wife who is easy to understand O:-)

I also remove expanders or machine them off if fitted, I see no reason why anyone would want to size a neck and then expand it immediately afterwards, it just works the neck twice.

Yes TiN.

Not so trivial unless you don't care about correctly identifying something.
I seem to remember a spat about bullets and 'heads'.
We owe it to all, especially new 'shooters' to speak with at least a minimal attempt at accuracy in the
technical language used.
Or this just a case of cake and eat it?

Relax marra, or is it marrer?, its just a case of fun and light hearted banter, note the emoticons.

But if always deadly serious is your thing then good luck to you, no need to be defensive about it. :grin:

You are of course quite right it is TiN and not Ti-Ni as I wrote earlier, I do know exactly what TiN is as some of my cheaper tooling is TiN coated and it does a reasonable job for a while. The Ti-Ni was an early morning mistake on my behalf, my bad..
