Strewth!!!! My loads must be really limp.....I want / get at least 15-20 reloads out of my Lapua 308 cases
No Dave, I think your loads are normal and you are using top quality cases.
I think there was a member in "Shoulder Set Back 308" thread that wrote that his cases had enlarged primer pockets after only 4 reloads. I did reply with a suggestion that he was probably overloading, but I could not be more specific without more details and one has to be careful not to cause offence.

You are right about how easy it is to offend inadvertently via emails..... but only 4 reloads just HAS to be in the danger zone unless the brass is utter crap!

Four is worrying, or it would be if I knew that such a load was being used beside me on the firing point!

I would also find four worrying under normal circumstances but I suspect that this guy might actually know what he is doing.

Yes, he is rather good at what he does and it looks like he can throw a reasonable rifle together as well. :lol:
We have two rifles in the house built with input from Vince, both are incredibly accurate and one is rather special in the hands of Christel.
