Some top level shooters don't even resize the brass. they just clean it, reprime it and go.


This is why we shoot DDPP bullets, no sizing, more powder, better case to chamber fit, better bullet to chamber fit and less bullet bump up, keeping the bullets original shape better, and in theory making it, more accurate. I have seen a huge increase in pts this past yr switching from a straight sided PP to a DDPP, many more X's than ever. The trend seems to follow with just about any who try, if they are willing to give them a shot....pun intended :lol:

Good to know. I don't have competition in my area, matter of fact I think I'm going to be the only one in my gun club shooting BPCR. Down the road I may buy another mold.

I have been leaning towards the smaller calibers. Girly guns if you will.
I am enjoying the H out of them. Latest being the 38-50 RH. I do also have a
35-50 and a 32-40 Rem Hep to work with even more "Girly" So What!!

Arnie,
Still a way to go to get more 'girly' than my 32-20. Only issue is getting them to work with PP...
