Thanks, thats good to know, I was just looking at your listings on trademe.
it might still be a good idea to slug the bore, i was told that there is a shipment of Italian stuff coming into the country soon which is supposed to be a good buy for the brass alone.

Here is some of the ammo I've got. The winchester stuff will be fine, but what about these older rounds?
Some of the primers are smaller too, my main concern is if they are corrosive. Have no idea on age.
