    Brass Bastards I know - 260 Nosler

    So being a cheap bastard myself I bought some Nosler 260 brass off TM. It was multiple fired but looked ok (it had been cleaned and annealed) and I asked a couple of questions - but not the right ones as it turned out.

    Luckily I only paid $30 and got a good ammo box with the 90 or so pieces because the bloody stuff has "donuts" - a question I didn't ask although you might think would have been disclosed.

    The brass looks like it can be saved if anybody has the tooling and expertise to properly neck turn it (again, I think its already been done once but not far enough or properly i.e. with the "donut" pushed right to the outside, which according to the interweb is the "right way).

    Unless someone wants to supply me with 50 or so pieces of good brass I 'll just harden up like anyone else and buy some new stuff . . . . unless another someone is able to help me with neck turning my existing mess.

    Cheers

    PS - I'm still pissy about missing out on the box of Lapua 260 brass that was sold on the forum a week or so ago - I don't recall who got it but feel free to have a good gloat now - ha ha
